Lyrics
[Verse 1] Take up my life 'cause the taste of your love has got me Do you know, my honey? Looking your way now, A kind of good treat in your arms I can try my love

[Pre-chorus] You can fly with me With joy and delight Just believe me, I'm ready now Watching all your love Go, feel up the sky tonight

[Chorus] Now you can try me Forever I'm your lover Making a part of me 'Cause you can try me Forget about your others Take all your time with me

[Verse 2] Talk in my mind Just stop looking around in your life Don't give up my honey Take all my heart now Just beating for you all the time You can try me love

The Japanese girl group Namie Amuro with Super Monkey's covered the song in Japanese under the new title "Try Me 〜私を信じて〜" (Try Me ~Watashi o Shinjite~) on January 25, 1995, which was released as the group's fifth single. It was released with the coupling track "Memories 〜明日のために〜" (Memories ~Ashita no tame ni~), which, in turn, is a cover of the track "Memories" by Norma Sheffield.
