Don't Try Songtext

You won me when you fumbled that goal

Perfection's overrated after all

You had me when you drew the curtain back and let me see
There was no one else behind that veil but you
And though I know you would secure me if you could with sorcery
It's unwise to love a wizard I think I'd rather just love you

You don't have to explain
You don't have to confess
You can keep on hearing no
But all I ever said is yes

I'm long gone, I'm long gone, I'm long gone

You had me when you let the last guard off the watch
When you started big and finished feeling small
You won me when you stumbled as you got up to dance
When you tried to fly and instead you took that fall
Oh, I want to love a human after all

You had me when you drew the curtain back and let me see
There was no one else behind that veil but you
And though I know you would secure me if you could with sorcery
It's unwise to love a wizard I think I'd rather love you

Someone who won't try to shun me
Believes that we belong
Trusts in my resistance
Is already long gone

Long gone
