Effort Lyrics by Y-O-U (band)

Flashlights

2007

[Verse 1]
When your thoughts are troubled
And you can't find any reasons for those sad things you see
And the sum of your secrets
Isn't adding up to quite the life you wanted to lead
Just take a chance with me, babe
It won't hurt your pride
This can stay between you and I
It's worth a try
It's worth a try
[Verse 2]
I will be your Atlas
If only I could hold you up and balance your grace
But if you need direction
I'll be the first to tell you you're looking in the wrong place
If we get lost in a moment
I might make you laugh
But you can't be afraid to cry
That's okay sometimes
Sometimes
It's worth a try
Worth a try
It's worth a try
Worth a try
[Verse 3]
I've got to head out tomorrow
And all this talk of effort will seem so far away
But you've always been distant
So it won't be that much different, unless you want me to stay
Take a chance with me, babe
I won't let you down
I won't ask you to compromise
Not tonight
Not tonight
It's worth a try
Worth a try
It's worth a try
It's worth a try
[Outro]
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses (going, going, going)
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
With all this coming and going and going and coming
You should come to your senses
[Applause and cheering]
