we both tried Lyrics

Saw you at the spot, right where we first met

You know you still look good, I can't deny that

Yeah we had something good, I can't deny that

But now I'm doing good, I can't deny

I did some thinking, drinking, a bit of sipping, tripping

All the things about you that I hated now I'm doing it too

And now and then, when I'm all alone in my room

I think about all of the moments that I held onto you

We had it alright, we had it well

Gave you a shoulder to lean on when both your eyes would swell

It took me months to feel it out and get you out that shell

I think between both you and me, I was the one that fell

Harder than most, I held you close

Lost in delusion, you know how this goes

Nobody knows, I overdose

You never loved me the same and it shows

I can't be your alibi

So baby this is my goodbye

You felt good to me, oh my

No asking why, well, we both tried

I took your pain as if it was my own

I took your dirty language and that tone

I took your imperfections, made you own them

I took you to the room and we would

Talk about your hopes and dreams, whether that included me

Talk about the label and the terms of exclusivity

Talk about the whether you and I would fit together

Talk about the way we're only in it for the pleasure

Now we're bluffing, fronting, a bit of touching, loving

All the things about the situation that would leave me confused

And now and then, I wonder if you're thinking it too

I think about the moments that I held onto you

You let me go, you let me grow

I was too young, but now I think I know

Enough for my own, I'm well off alone

You never loved me the same and it shows

I can't be your alibi

So baby this is my goodbye

You felt good to me, oh my

No asking why, well, we both tried
