Trying To Cry Lyrics by Joe Jackson

Trying To Cry Lyrics

    See the guy in the corner
    The one who's drinking another glass
    There's a look in his eye
    That i've seen so many times in the past
    I've seen it in the mirror
    And i've seen it in my friends
    When we realize we've lost ourselves
    And we try to make amends
    He'll drink another two or three
    And the room will start to spin
    Then he'll try to let the feelings show
    But he'll find he can't give in

    You remember what your brother said
    Remember what your brother said
    "i'll tell the whole class if i see you"
    You remember what your mother said
    Remember what your mother said
    "never be a man if you do"

    See the guy in the corner
    Putting out another cigarette
    Maybe someone is dying
    From something that they can't cure yet
    Maybe a lover is cheating
    Maybe a lover just left
    But something's gone, maybe forever
    And it's something that he can't forget

    You remember what your brother said
