Give Me a Try

  • I know that I like to let excess succeed
    But I just need you in that fur coat
    With only my necklace on underneath
    And I don't care why this apartment's always cold
    London can try, it'll never swallow me whole

    And I swear,

    We could be gigantic, everything I need
    Vicodin on Sunday nights
    This could be worth the risk, worth the guarantee
    This could be the drug that doesn't bite
    Just give me a try
    Just give me a try
    Been kind of hoping you might
    Get up and give me a try

    I know, sometimes I lose the plot and I cause a scene
    What do you dream of on the west coast
    When my head is aching in GMT
    And I don't care why this apartment's so ice cold
    Let London try, it'll never swallow me whole

    And I swear,

    We could be gigantic, everything I need
    Vicodin on Sunday nights
    This could be worth the risk, worth the guarantee
    This could be the drug that doesn't bite
    Just give me a try
    Just give me a try
    Been kind of hoping you might
    Get up and give me a try

    I'm shaving with your toothpaste
    And trying to vacuum from the ceiling
    The millisecond that you're away
    I get the loneliest feeling

    Just give me a try

    And I swear,
    I swear,

    We could be gigantic, everything I need
    Vicodin on Sunday nights
    This could be worth the risk, worth the guarantee
    This could be the drug that never bites
    Just give me a try
    Just give me a try
    Been kind of hoping you might
    Get up and give me a try
    Give me a try

    Just give me a try
    Just give me a try Writer/s: Daniel Joseph Haggis, Matthew Edward Murphy, Tord Oeverland Knudsen
