Daniel Johnston
Try To Love
In my fantasy
You were there with me
I turned towards the mirror and there's nothing there

I sit in a chair
Washing my underwear
Thinking all along you were of good cheer

And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above

So begins the star
There's a spark in my heart
But you just stayed away from my memory

I try to get it right
Lay down a song
But there's something wrong with my song

And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above

Baby you're the one
Same as any other
And I really tried
But I've been denied
Crazy as it seems
In the hall of broken dreams
Till there's nothing left
But an empty eggshell

And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above

Saw you in my movie
Like you really cared
I turned towards the mirror
And there's nothing there

You were on my mind
I tried to unwind
To a better atmosphere of good cheer

And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above

I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
