Lyrics

No Shame In Trying

There are no broken bones
and my skin's too thick for bruising
It's not the falling in love that hurts
it's these sudden endings
though I can't feel it now
it might not exist
but I'm breathing still
I must be one of the heartless living

CHORUS: I don't need regrets as evidence of your affection
I won't beg your pardon, or judge your good intentions
you know I still believe in Love
there was no shame in trying

I stopped for a railroad gate
watched the Santa Fe a rolling
I saw a Hobo wave
said thanks for the inspiration
though I can't see it now
it might not exist
it's a long way off
it's my destination

CHORUS:

Bridge: Back at home tonight
it's only crickets calling
I look out into space
and I see another
star a falling
