Try, try if you can
Try and get your back up
And off the golden sands
Try to get somewhere
That you've never been
As you sit upon the green grass
There's still so much to see

And find yourself, waiting just to try, try, try

Just what you want
Is just what you'll get
As you fall upon the real path
Or take the safer bet

Bet, you can give everything
Still none comes to you
You can hang life 'round you're neck, y'all
I may hang there too

And find myself, waiting just to try, try, try
Oh, to find myself, waiting just to fly, fly, fly
What I'm trying to tell you

Try, try if you can
Got to get your back up
And off the golden sands
Just all remember, if only for you
You can hang life 'round your neck, y'all
Or you can be there too

And find yourself just waiting to fly, fly, fly
Oh, to find yourself, waiting just to fly, fly, fly
Oh, to find yourself, waiting just to fly, fly, fly
I'm trying to tell you, yeah

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
