I Can Try lyrics

I know I came waltzing in here
Acting like I'm gonna take his place
It don't work that way

It's too soon you've been through too much
For me to think that I could win your trust
Let alone your love

I can try, I can try
To take away the lonely
Even if it's only for a while
I can make you smile
I can't get you over him overnight
But I can try
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/crossin_dixon/i_can_try.html ]
Let my arms remind you of some place
Where it's safe to just let go
Because you can, you know

After what he did to you
No matter what I do, the chances are
I can't unbreak your heart

I can try, I can try
To take away the lonely
Even if it's only for a while
I can make you smile
I can't get you over him overnight
But I can try

I can give you hope
And I can be your friend
But I can't change the past
Or make you love again

I can try, yeah
I'll make you smile for a while
I can't get you over him overnight
But I can try
