Content
"Another Try" is a ballad in which the narrator expresses his desire to undo his past actions in order to bring back a former lover who has left him. He begins by listing the mistakes that he has made, such as hiding his emotions ("all the things I felt and never shared") and "let[ting] her go without a fight". In the chorus, he elaborates on the central point by stating that, given the opportunity to reverse his mistakes, he would never let his lover go:
- "The reasons I'm alone, I know by heart
- I don't want to spend forever in the dark
- I swear next time I'll hang on for dear life
- If love ever gives me another try"
Music video
A music video for the song was released in April 2008. Directed by Stephen Scott, the video alternates between two sets of footage. The first features Turner singing and playing acoustic guitar by himself in a room. The other set portrays a scene in which Turner, after discovering that his lover has left, drives off with a suitcase full of belongings, which he throws off a high bridge. This latter set of footage was filmed backwards (thus, the bridge scene comes first), illustrating the central character's desire to reverse time.[1] (Yearwood does not appear in the video.) Scenes from the video were filmed in Franklin, Tennessee, primarily in the town's square.[1]
Chart performance
The song debuted at #57 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart dated January 12, 2008.
