Tryin' To Try Lyrics - Dublin Blues - Guy Clark

I threw a rock through your window 

Just to let you know I love you 

Just to let you know I care and I ain't scared 

To have you see how I feel 

I blew a kiss through your keyhole 

Just to let you know I'm breathin' 

Just to try and smack you in the heart, 

If I was smart 

I'd give up and go back home 

[Chorus ] 

I'm not tryin' to say I'm sorry 

I'm trying to say I love you 

I'm not tryin' to make excuses 

Nor set myself above you 

I'm not tryin' to rearrange it 

I'm not sayin' I can change it 

The only thing I'm tryin' to do is try 

I was hidin' by the back porch 

Just to try and catch you leavin' 

Just to try and catch you unaware 

I don't care 

If that ain't fair, I ain't proud 

[Chorus ] 

I leaned on your doorbell 

Just to see if you would answer 

Just to see if you would open up, 

No such luck 

I'll come back when you calm down
