If We Try
Discovering Love's Potential
Lyrics
When I see you on the street
Expressing the impact of seeing the person on the street
I lose my concentration
Experiencing a loss of focus due to the encounter
And just the thought that we might meet
Feeling anticipation at the possibility of meeting
Creates anticipation
Highlighting the excitement and expectation
Won't you look my way once before you go
Requesting attention before departure
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Expressing a desire for non-verbal communication
Well, I've been thinking about you day and night
Revealing constant thoughts about the person
And I don't know if it will work out right
Uncertain about the outcome of the situation
But somehow I think that it just might
Hopeful that things may work out positively
If we try
Expressing a willingness to make an effort
Faces come and faces go in circular rotation
Observing the transient nature of relationships
But something yearns within to grow
Desire for growth beyond mere attraction
Beyond infatuation
Highlighting a deeper emotional connection
Won't you look my way once before you go
Reiteration of the desire for acknowledgment
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Emphasizing non-verbal communication again
Well, you got me standing deaf and blind
Feeling emotionally vulnerable and confused
'Cause I see love as just a state of mind
Viewing love as a mental state
And who knows what it is that we might find
Uncertainty about the potential discoveries in love
If we try
Reiteration of willingness to try
You're walking a different direction
Noticing a divergence in paths
From most people I've met
Receiving uncommon signs of affection
You're giving me signs of affection
Expressing surprise at the received affection
I don't usually get
Clarification about not seeking long-term commitments
I don't want you to pledge your future
Emphasizing the uncertainty of the future
The future's not yours to give
Rejecting the idea of making promises
Just stand there a little longer
Asking to observe the person's life for a while
And let me watch while you live
Expressing a desire to witness their experiences
'Cause when I see you on the street
Repeating the impact of seeing the person
I lose my concentration
Recurrence of losing concentration
And just the thought that we might meet
Reiterating the anticipation of a potential meeting
Creates anticipation
Expressing excitement and hope again
Won't you look my way once before you go
Requesting attention for the third time
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Emphasizing the importance of non-verbal cues
Well, I've been thinking about you day and night
Reflecting on continuous thoughts about the person
And I don't know if it will work out right
Repeating uncertainty about the outcome
But somehow I think that it just might
Reiterating hope for a positive resolution
If we try
Final affirmation of willingness to try
Somehow I think that it just might
Reiteration of optimism about the potential
If we try
Final expression of hope and willingness
Yes,somehow I think that it just might
Concluding the optimistic sentiment
If we try
Final reaffirmation of the willingness to try
