Don’t You Try Lyrics by Patternist

Summer Singles

2015

[Verse 1]
Tell me, am I in for another night awake?
I’ve given it my best shot
To play it cool and wait
But the feeling never stays
You’ve given all that you’ve got

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now you know the city never sleeps
I would rather waste it all, waste it all
Hearing every secret that you keep
You know that I want to know them all
But I’m lying around like a ghost in the house
And I just can’t get out

[Chorus]
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try

[Verse 2]
What you’ve got, I need it all
In this place, something I’ve never had
And I’ve found that nothing’s wrong
With you here, something I’ve never had

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But the city never sleeps
I would rather waste it all, waste it all
Spilling every secret that I keep
I want you to know them all

[Chorus]
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try

[Bridge]
Another night’s sleep without you
Don’t know if I can pull through
Another night’s sleep without you, you
Another night’s sleep without you
Don’t know if I can pull through
Another night’s sleep without you, you

[Chorus]
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try
Just tell me, am I gonna make it through the night
Without you?
But don’t you try

[Outro]
Another night’s sleep without you
Don’t know if I can pull through
Another night’s sleep without you, you
Another night’s sleep without you
Don’t know if I can pull through
Another night’s sleep without you, you
