Why Don't You Try
Kelly Clarkson
Intro: (4x) I am a woman Cut in two By ambitious pride Stuck in my ways Between you And my other life Now I have been around enough to know when love has ended But I believe that you and I deserve to be extended So why don’t you try To make me stay When it’s time to go Why don’t you try To stand in my way Cause we both know I can’t stop myself Our empty house You occupy When I’m far away Heavier hearts won’t justify Why I’m gone today Now I have hung a cloud above our lives from always leaving Figured you would at least make me give a better reason So why don’t you try To make me stay When it’s time to go Why don’t you try To stand in my way Cause we both know I can’t stop myself Instrumental: (2x) In the early mornings when I’m up before dawn You say "why don’t you stay" but you keep sleeping on Maybe you’re just used to me being gone Cause if you know that I don’t want to go So why don’t you try When it’s time to go Why don’t you try To stand in my way Cause we both know I can’t stop myself Why don’t you Why don’t you try When it’s time to go oh Cause I don’t want to have to go And be the one to leave you holding on alone But this this is my goodbye So why don’t you try (2x) End on:
