Try Me Baby
The Clarke/Duke Project Lyrics

I know there must have been a moment when you loved me
I believe that, at some point, you had feelings for me.

I know you must be holding onto something
I understand that you have something keeping you from leaving me completely.

But maybe that's a lie I tell myself
However, it's possible that I'm only telling myself this to avoid accepting the truth.

Maybe it's over and I just can't tell
Perhaps our relationship has ended, but I'm having difficulty admitting it.

But girl you know you fuck like we're in love
Regardless of our situation, our physical intimacy feels like we're both in love.

Do you love me, do you love me
I need to know if you still love me or if my feelings are just a one-way street.

You know I just can't help but love you
No matter what, I can't stop loving you.

I know that must not make it easy on you
I realize that my love for you can sometimes be a burden for you.

But it's something in the way you say my name
There's a certain quality to the way you say my name that gives me hope.

Desperation painted on your face
I can see the desperation in your expression, and it makes me wonder if you're also struggling.

Baby I just wanna hear you say
I simply want you to tell me that you love me.

That you love me
I need to hear that you still have feelings for me.

But maybe I'm waiting for nothing
It's possible that I'm foolishly holding out hope for something that's never going to happen.

Maybe I'm wasting you're time
I could be causing you to waste your time on a relationship that's going nowhere.

Maybe you're waiting for something
Perhaps you're also waiting for something that I can't give you.

Baby that I just can't provide
It's possible that there's something missing from our relationship that I can't provide.

But baby I'm dying watching you try to love me
Seeing you struggle to love me is causing me a great deal of pain.

It goes and it comes back baby when we touch
Our physical connection is unpredictable and sometimes fleeting.

That feeling never being good enough
This feeling of being inadequate to you never fully goes away.

But maybe it's the kiss that numbs the pain
It's possible that our physical intimacy is the only thing masking our relationship issues.

Maybe you're trying to fall in love again
Perhaps you're hoping that our relationship will rekindle your ability to feel love.

Baby I want to but I just can't change
I wish I could change, but unfortunately, that's just not something I'm capable of.

Do you love me, could you love me, do you love me
I need to know if your feelings for me are still there or if they could be in the future.

And maybe it's a lie I tell myself
Perhaps I'm only telling myself that there's still hope for our relationship.

Oh do you remember the way it felt
I'm reminiscing about a time when our love felt strong and pure.

When loved me, do you love me, could you love me
I want to know if we can recapture that love we once had.

Baby I'm dying watching you try to love me
It's heartbreaking to watch you struggle to maintain feelings for me.
