Try Again
Glisha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We'd meet up for a drink sometime
And catch up like we always said we would
We'll go down without a fight
And we'll never get the ending right
Just slowly drifting to strangers
Multiple times, we'll say goodbye again
It's been so long since you and i
When our paths cross, i know we'll try again
Do you remember how it felt?
Being us and wanting nothing else
Why does that feeling stick around?
Why can't we pick up from where we were?
Erase the bad and save the good,
Do you wish it could be that way too?
I know from time to time we'll try
Multiple times, we'll say goodbye again
It's been so long since you and i
When our paths cross, i know we'll try again
Try again
Then it's goodbye again
Yeah we'll try again
Then it's goodbye again
I know from time to time we'll try
Multiple times, we'll say goodbye again
It's been so long since you and i
When our paths cross, i know we'll try again
And i know, yeah i know, i'll see your smile again
And i know i'll look into your eyes again
And i know, yeah i know, i'll see your smile again
And i know i'll look into your eyes again
The song "Try Again" by Glisha talks about a relationship that could have been, but didn't quite work out. The lyrics imply that in another life, the two partners would have met up for a drink and caught up like they promised they would. It seems that despite how long it's been, the feeling of longing and the memories of the good times remain. The singer wonders why it's so hard to pick up from where they left off and erase the bad memories while keeping the good ones. The hope of reconnecting still lingers, as the singer knows that from time to time, they'll try again and that their paths will cross once more.
The lyrics suggest that the relationship with this person didn't end on a bad note but rather in a less eventful manner. It's sad to note that the two characters will go down without a fight, and they'll never get the ending right. Instead, they'll just drift apart like strangers. However, the hope of reconnecting remains, and every time they cross paths, they'll try again.
Overall, "Try Again" is a song of hope and longing for a better ending to a once-great relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of a person who still holds onto the hope of reconnecting with a loved one, despite the circumstances. The message is poignant and relatable.
