I know I can't do the high jump
If I never want to dive
I know I can't get to Paris
If I only wanna drive
If I never want to dive
I know I can't get to Paris
If I only wanna drive
But I can try
I can try
I can try
I can't catch your eye at midnight
When there's no one else around
And I know I can't tell you secrets
If I never make a sound
When there's no one else around
And I know I can't tell you secrets
If I never make a sound
But I can try
I can try
I can try
Maybe I should be ashamed
What's that thing that people say?
"Nothing lost is nothing gained"
What's that thing that people say?
"Nothing lost is nothing gained"
Now your ghost has come to haunt me
It seems as if she's here to stay
I know I can't make you want me
Without giving myself away
It seems as if she's here to stay
I know I can't make you want me
Without giving myself away
But still
I can try
I can try
I can try
And I will
I can try
I can try
I can try
And I will
