Lyrics
Try
The clock keeps ticking
The world keeps spinning
The one who?s picking
Keeps on winning
Never fails to find the open door
I?ve been thinking that it really doesn?t matter what they told you
They?re the only ones who are keeping score
Just as long as you Try
That?s all that really matters
And take pride
With every rung of the ladder
You?ll get high enough
And always be a winner to me
I?ve been thinking winning?s really in the eyes of the beholder
Win or lose it?s more in how you play
The weight of victory is easier to carry on you shoulders
If you stop to help a friend along the way
And together you Try
That?s all that really matters
And take pride
With every rung of the ladder
You?ll get high enough
Your dreams can easily come true
If you Try
You'll always be a winner to me
If you Try
