One More Try
Clint Crisher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
'Cause teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go
And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try

I've had enough of danger
I am tired of being in danger
And people on the streets
I am tired of the people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
I am searching for goodness
Just trying to find some peace
I am searching for tranquility
Now I think it's time
I realize it's time
That you let me know
That you tell me what you really feel
So if you love me
If you truly love me
Say you love me
Tell me that you love me
But if you don't just let me go
But if you don't, please set me free
'Cause teacher
Because I am addressing my teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
There are things that I refuse to learn
And the last one I had
And the last experience I had
Made me cry
Caused me to cry
So I don't want to learn to
So I don't want to learn how to
Hold you, touch you
Embrace you or touch you
Think that you're mine
Believe that you are mine
Because it ain't no joy
Because it will not bring me joy
For an uptown boy
For a privileged boy like me
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Whose teacher has given up on him
When you were just a stranger
When I first met you
And I was at your feet
When I was completely devoted to you
I didn't feel the danger
I was oblivious to the risks
Now I feel the heat
Now I feel the pressure
That look in your eyes
The expression on your face
Telling me no
Indicating that your answer is no
So you think that you love me
So you believe that you love me
Know that you need me
Know that you depend on me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
I know that this song is problematic, even though I wrote it
Just let me go
Please allow me to leave
So when you say that you need me
So when you claim that you require me
That you'll never leave me
That you will never abandon me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
I know that you are mistaken because you don't have that much strength
Let me go
Please allow me to leave
And teacher
And I am talking to my teacher again
There are things
There are still things
That I still have to learn
That I still have to discover
But the one thing I have is my pride
But the one thing I have is my self-respect
Oh so I don't want to learn to
So I refuse to learn how to
Hold you, touch you
Embrace you or touch you
Think that you're mine
Believe that you exclusively belong to me
Because there ain't no joy
Because that won't bring me happiness
For an uptown boy
For a privileged boy like me
Who just isn't willing to try
Who is simply unwilling to make an effort
I'm so cold
I am emotionally distant
Inside
Internally
Maybe just one more try
Perhaps I can attempt one more time
