Aaliyah-Try Again

    Aaliyah，台灣代理唱片公司翻譯為愛莉雅，她是1990年代中期開始走紅的黑人女歌星，1979年1月16日於紐約布魯克林區出生，在密西根州底特律長大，1994-2002年出過四張專輯唱片，其中第四張專輯《I Care 4 You》當中推出的單曲"Try Again" 獲得過Billboard Hot 100排行榜冠軍，他也應邀參加電影「致命羅密歐」Romeo Must Die(與李連杰合演)及「屍纏妖后」Queen Of The Damned演出。

         Aaliyah 1994年7月31日和R.Kelly結婚(Kelly是1990年代R&B巨星)，當時還不滿16歲，後來婚約被取消，很不幸的2001年8月25日Aaliyah 22歲時因飛機失事在巴哈馬Abaco喪生，可謂自古紅顏多薄命。

It's been a long time

I Know I shouldn't left you, left you,

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to

Step to,

Freaky, freaky, freaky (baby girl)

What would you do

To get to me?

What would you say

To have your way?

Would you give up?

Or try again

If I hesitate to let you in?

Now would you be yourself

Or play a role?

Tell all the boys

Or keep it low?

If I say no

Would you turn away

Or play me off

Or would you stay (oooohhh)...

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

I'm in to you

You in to me?

But I can't let it go

So easily,

Not 'till I see

What this could be

Could be eternity

Or just a week?

You know our chemistry

It's off the chain

It's perfect now

But will it change?

This ain't a yes

This ain't a no

Just do your thang

And we'll see how it goes (oooohhh)...

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

See you don't wanna throw it all away

I might be shy on the first date

But what about the next date (huh, huh, huh, huh)

See you don't wanna throw it all away

I might be buggin' on the first date

But what about the next date (huh, huh, huh, huh, oh)

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

It's been a long time (long time)

Shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to

If at first you don't succeed

(First you don't succeed)

Then dust yourself off and try again

You can dust if off and try again, try again

'Cause if at first you don't succeed

(At first you don't succeed)

You can dust it off and try again,

Dust yourself off and try again, try again

Again, again

It's been a long time (long time)

Shouldn't have left you (left you)

Without a dope beat to step to

Step to, step to, step to
