Try The Love Lyrics - Other Voices, Too (a Trip Back To Bountiful) - Nanci Griffith

Before you marry, before you mend 

Or have someone's children, long before then 

You could find something with somebody new 

Try the love that I'm offering in my open arms 

Before you do 

We should have quarreled, it's so unwise 

To cut yourself loose with only some lies 

Wasn't my first time, it won't be my last 

Try the love that took only a minute to grow 

It won't die that fast 

Try the love that the keeper of the key 

Told me one time was clearly not for me 

He's not keepin' no more 

It's the kind when held up to a flame 

Whispers one word, darlin' always your name 

Of this you can be sure 

I have a home now, you should come back 

It's got so much room that I can't unpack 

This is my wish, dear, a now spoken truth 

Try the love that once hidden now seem so alive 

It's waiting on you 

Try the love that the keeper of the key 

Told me one time was clearly not for me 

He's not keepin' no more 

It's the kind when held up to a flame 

Whispers one word, darlin' always your name 

Of this you can be sure 

Try the love that once hidden, now seem so alive 

It's waiting on you 

Try the love that once hidden, now seem so alive 

It's waiting on you
