quarterflash - trying to find a new way lyrics

it was ’71 when i wrote our first song
mom was still sleeping + dad was still gone
so i snuck out of bed + wrote down a line
i liked the words but they seemed out of…
time, time, time is the enemy
trying to rhyme in a line what you meant to me
i thought i had it when i found that diminished
seventy verses later i was still trying to finish

i was trying to find a new way to get to you
trying to find a new way to make it true
trying to find a new way…

it was ’82 before we broke their hearts
always pedal to the metal + unsettled from the start
it was touch and go and up and down
and we held onto each other like a merry+go+round
round, round like a satellite
i tried to sing it like you wrote it but it wasn’t right
i sung for millions and i sung for tips
and all them sons of b+tches on the sunset strip and…

i was trying to find a new way to get to you
trying to find a new way to make it true
trying to find a new way…
there we go long ago i know you remember
yelling at me even though i never heard a word you’d say
that was me, absentee, you see i was always living
in the make+believe looking for another way to say i loved you
i’ve been your lover and i’ve been your beast
and your worst critic when you needed one least
and you cut me down and i make you cry
i tried to change you and i still don’t know why
why, why do we go through this
i can see it in your eye that you’re getting p+ssed
don’t ask me if i like your suggestion
if you don’t want the answer, baby
then don’t ask the question, i’m just…

i was trying to find a new way to get to you
trying to find a new way to make it true
trying to find a new way…
