Lyrics: Libbie Schrader. Other. On The First Try.


Like a melody
You were waiting there
All I had to do was look around

When you smiled at me
You never knew I cared
'Cause my feet were stuck to the ground

I've danced on this line before
And I can't, I can't do it anymore

CHORUS:
So baby, I'm gonna get it right
On the first try
Baby I'm gonna make you mine
Baby I'm gonna make you mine

Baby I'm gonna get it
On the first try
Baby I'm gonna get it right
Baby I'm gonna make you mine

It's just so rare I see
Someone come up to me
It's like you wanna know what I'm all about

You'll need a symphony
To give sympathy
To the girl with the worst luck in town

When I care, it curls me up on the floor
And I swear, I can't do it anymore

CHORUS

When you smile at me
I have to turn away
You don't know how much that I need it

I know that music plays
On these radio waves
And I'm starting to feel it
So don't give up on me yet

Like a hand-me-down
I've been waiting round
Giving way too much to these false starts

Like a photograph
This is all that's left
The rest slipped through the cracks of my heart
And I swear I can't do it anymore

CHORUS

On the first try
On the first try
Libbie Schrader
