There was a girl who rode a bike
And her father held the seat
And ran for his life right behind
And when he was sure she wouldn't know
Sometimes he'd just let go
And there she was going on just fine
But every time she looked back
She crashed and burned
You'd think she would have learned
Still her dad was there to kiss her cheek and say
"You have to try again
Even if the world has seen you crying
Try again
It may be the hardest thing to do,
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall."
The girl grew up and lost her heart
When she gave the deepest part
To a person who would turn and walk away
And as the weeks would pa** her by
She cried every tear there was to cry
Till she was sure
She was through with those sad days
But every time she looked back
She crashed and burned
You'd think she would have learned
But she would call her friends and they would always say
"You have to try again
Even if the world has seen you crying
Try again
It may be the hardest thing to do,
But we'll be there to catch you when you fall."
Everyone will fall a time or two and
Time and mercy heal the wounds
But the most important thing you can do
Is whisper a prayer, and then as soon as you dare,
Try again
Try again
Cause there is a world that's full of light
But sometimes I can't forget
Mistakes that I have made from time to time
I wonder how different life would be
If I'd gone a different way
At some crossroad that's a thousand miles behind
And every time I look back
I crash and burn
You'd think I would have learned
But there's still a voice inside me that will say
"You have to try again
Even if the world has seen you falling
Try again
Try again
Even if the world has seen you crying,
Try again
And the Lord will see you through,
And he'll be there to catch you when you fall."
