One More Try [Rollo & Sister Bliss Radio Edti][Mix]

Kristine W

Every window in my hometown is empty
And I really don't know why
And the house you used to live in is cold and fallen down, yeah
And I am tired and I'm weary
And lord those grey skies bring me down
And I came home for just one reason
To find myself in this quiet town, yeah

And I keep thinking, oh I'm thinking time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me

So please give me one more try
Oh, just give me one more try
One more try
I don't know where to go for one more try

All the days we spent together doing nothing
It all so seems so long ago
I thought the world turned around without me baby
But I just didn't know
That I was wrong to go and leave you
To go and leave your world behind
But now time has been my teacher
And now I finally found

I'm thinking time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
So please give me one more try

Just give me one more try
One more try
Oh, I don't know what to do
For one more try

Now I'm sitting in my hotel
Watching old films
Doing nothing once again
The difference now is you're not with me
And I'm lonelier than I've ever been

And I've been thinkin'
Time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
Please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
Please give me one more try

Just give me one more try
One more try
'Cause I don't know where to go
For one more try

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
