Françoise Hardy - Why Even Try? Lyrics

Françoise Hardy Lyrics

"Why Even Try?"

Our two hearts are the same, they could turn out untrue
We don't want to feel pain, yet maybe I love you
Why even try to go away, why even try to hide away?

I've got nothing to share, just this world my eyes see
But if it's pain that fear, pain lets no-one go free
Why even try to steal away, why even try to run away?

Or to stay in your ivory tower
Grow in peace like some secret flower
Alone, alone
When the pain is a little less
We forget there's no happiness
Alone, alone

Share the stars in the sky, for they're all I can give
Share these tears we must cry, if we love, if we live
Why even try to stay alone, why even try to live alone?

Share the stars in the sky for they're all I can give
Share these tears we must cry, if we love, if we live
Why even try to stay alone, why even try to live alone, alone?
