Tryin’ Lyrics by Pam Tillis

Thunder & Roses

2001

In a cloud of dust
On a greyhound bus
She crossed the cook county line
Slept all the way to nashville
Big dreams running through her mind
She said sure as Im breathing
I'm gonna be a big star some day
She was jumping into the deep end
On a leap of sweet blind faith

It's about hoping
It's about dreaming
It's about never not- believeing
It's about taking a walk out on the wire
And never looking down
It's about living instead of dying
It's about spreading your wings and flying
Its all about trying
Oh yeah

It's been six years gone
Since she left home
And she hasn't made it big yet
Oh but theres no second guessing
Baby, she's got no regrets
She still works the late shift down
At the Greasy Spoon Cafe
And when she brings you out your milkshake
Honey, well you just might hear her say...

It's about hoping
It's about dreaming
It's about never not- believeing
It's about taking a walk out on the wire
And never looking down
It's about living instead of dying
It's about spreading your wings and flying
Its all about trying
Oh yeah

It's about hoping It's about dreaming
It's about never not- believeing
It's about taking a walk out on the wire
And never looking down
It's about living instead of dying
It's about spreading your wings and flying
Its all about trying
Oh yeah

It's not wheather you win or lose its
Getting in the game
Once you set your wings in motion
Well you'll never be the same

It's about hoping
It's about dreaming
It's about never not- believeing
It's about taking a walk out on the wire
And never looking down
It's about living instead of dying
It's about spreading your wings and flying
Its all about trying
Oh yeah
