That's Me Trying - William Shatner[00:00:01]
Written by:Nick Hornby[00:00:07]
I got your address from[00:00:13]
The phone book at the library[00:00:14]
Wandered in looked you up and you were there[00:00:17]
Weird that you've been living maybe[00:00:21]
2 miles away for the best part of 20 years[00:00:23]
You must be what in your early forties now[00:00:27]
If I remember[00:00:30]
You were born in June or was it May[00:00:32]
Eisenhower was the president[00:00:36]
Although it may have been JFK[00:00:38]
Years of silence[00:00:41]
Not enough who could blame us giving up[00:00:44]
Above the quiet there's a buzz[00:00:55]
That's me trying[00:01:02]
You still working in that store on ventura[00:01:05]
You still going with no that's not fair[00:01:08]
I know I haven't been the very best of dads[00:01:12]
I'll hold my hand up there[00:01:14]
The reason that I'm[00:01:16]
Writing is that I'd like for us to meet[00:01:17]
Get a little daughter dad action going soon[00:01:21]
We can put things behind us[00:01:23]
Eat some pizza drink some beer[00:01:25]
You still see your sister Lemli[00:01:26]
Bring her too[00:01:29]
Years of silence not enough[00:01:30]
Who could blame us giving up[00:01:37]
Above the quiet there's a buzz[00:01:44]
That's me trying[00:01:50]
But I don't want to talk[00:01:55]
About any of that bad stuff[00:01:56]
Why I missed out on your[00:01:59]
Wedding and your high school graduation[00:02:00]
I'd like to explain but I can't[00:02:02]
So let's keep things neutral[00:02:05]
Stick to topics that won't bug us[00:02:08]
How 'bout this[00:02:10]
Let's choose a book[00:02:12]
And we'll read it before we meet[00:02:13]
Then we can sit down at a restaurant[00:02:16]
Have a look at the menu[00:02:18]
And talk about it while we eat[00:02:19]
See if we never had a problem[00:02:20]
Then that's what life would be like[00:02:24]
Easy[00:02:26]
Uncomplicated[00:02:27]
Cool[00:02:29]
So let's just pretend that the past didn't happen[00:02:30]
I don't really like thriller as well[00:02:34]
I don't want to know if I've got grandchildren[00:02:40]
No need to tell me where I went wrong[00:02:43]
I don't want to know[00:02:46]
What happened in your thirties[00:02:47]
You wanna try 'cold mountain'[00:02:51]
Or is that too long[00:02:54]
Years of silence not enough[00:02:57]
Who could blame us giving up[00:03:04]
Above the quiet there's a buzz[00:03:10]
That's me trying it's me trying[00:03:17]
That's me trying[00:03:23]
Above the quiet there's a buzz[00:03:31]
