Timmy T started out in the 80's in small rap groups in Fresno, but felt that he would rather do dance music. He purchased a Moog synthesizer and a Roland TR-808 drum machine at a pawn shop, and recorded his first single, "Time After Time", in his garage. He delivered copies to a Fresno radio station and asked them to play his single. After the DJ played the song, there were many calls requesting who that was. The DJ recommended to Timmy T to take his record to radio stations in Los Angeles for more exposure. After Los Angeles pop station Power 106 played the record, Timmy got a record deal with Quality Records and released another single, "One More Try", which proved to be much more successful than his first single, climbing its way to the top of the Billboard charts.
Although Freestyle music has been a mainstay of New York and Miami, Timmy T was one of the most successful Freestyle artists to come from California.
He recorded his first album, "Time After Time", featuring the title track (his first single), "One More Try", and "What Will I Do." He followed up with "All For Love."
Timmy T has toured all over the world and performed on various TV shows through the early 90's. Following a financially draining divorce, having to raise his children, and the decline of Freestyle's popularity in general, Timmy fell out of the public eye. Nowadays, Timmy tours with other Freestyle acts such as The Cover Girls, Stevie B, Lisa Lisa, and others on the club circuit. His music still garners heavy rotation on Freestyle playlists.
Timmy T is not related to fellow Freestyle singer Judy Torres.

One More Try
Timmy T Lyrics
It's been a long time since you left me
I didn't mean to make you cry
I didn't mean to disappoint you
I didn't mean to tell you lies
And after all that we have been through
Won't you let me tell you why
[Chorus]
One more try I didn't know how much I loved you
One more try let me put my arms around you
Living all these lonely nights without you
Oh baby can we give it one more try
It's been a long time since I kissed you
It always used to feel so good
And if you knew how much I missed you
You'd forgive me if you could
And now that we have found each other
Can't we give it one more try (one more try)
[Chorus]
And after all that we have been through
Won't you let me tell you why
And now that we have found each other
Can't we give it one more try (one more try)
[Chorus]
Oh girl you know I love you
I just want you to know
Our love I'll always treasure
So please just don't let me go

I didn't mean to make you cry
I didn't mean to disappoint you
I didn't mean to tell you lies
… And after all that we have been through
Won't you let me tell you why
… One more try I didn't know how much I loved you
One more try let me put my arms around you
Living all these lonely nights without you
Oh baby can we give it one more try
… It's been a long time since I kissed you
It always used to feel so good
And if you knew how much I missed you
You'd forgive me if you could
… And now that we have found each other
Can't we give it one more try (one more try)
… One more try I didn't know how much I loved you

Living all these lonely nights without you
Oh baby can we give it one more try

I just want you to know
Our love I'll always treasure
So please just don't let me go

It’s absolutely incredible how a song you haven’t heard in 30 years will come on & you still know all the lyrics & who you were dating at that time so vividly!!!

I was all of 8 years old when this song came out, still never forgot the words! It was played so much on the radio back then, it's hard to not remember! Still love it, and I'm almost 40 years old!

In my case, her name was Kelly. She ended up with the other guy after not giving me one more try. And, you know what, while I'm not crazy about my part in her story, I'm actually glad she ended up with him. They really do seem to have been meant for each other. And after all these many years, I'm genuinely happy for them.
