about

Taz Halloween gives me goosebumps every time I play this.
I wrote it several years ago as a solo song, but Jerry Brown heard it as a duet. Brilliant observation!

lyrics

Able To Try
It’s not about you, it never is
It’s not about what’s hers and what’s his
It’s all about what you bring to the table
And can you live up to your own standard if you’re able
Well I’m able to try
Can you say that and look me in the eye
I
t’s not about me, that’s what you say
But that’s not how it feels, not on this side anyway
How can I keep from taking it personally
When I’m standing here and you’re staring at me

Well I’m able to try
Can you say that and look me in the eye
Yes I’m able to try

We spend our time on who’s wrong and who’s right
We could spend that time on making it through the night

It’s not about you and it’s not about me
So what are we holding on for so desperately
I believe we can set this all aside
And live ours lives as though we’ve nothing to hide

Well I’m able to try
Can you say that and look me in the eye
Yes I’m able … I’m able to try
Yes I’m able to try, tryyyy, Yes I’m able to try, yes I’m able to try
