I Tried Lyrics

Say it easy for me

I'm so tired of getting things wrong

Your voice still sounds so sweet

and I'm fighting holding on

'Cos you've been gone such a long time

And it kills my dreams

Yeah, I

Know it's time to step aside

But I just can't achieve it

'Cos every cloud I see in a grey sky

Takes the form of you and I

Try to shield them from my eyes

But your light seeps through my

Fingers though I hold them so tight

As I fall to my knees

Oh, God

I tried

Riding down the avenue through fall

There's no space in-between us

Thinking of a place we called our home

Left our plans in the ceiling

I'm not sure why you've come my way

But it's so great to see you

And if you're ever flying by

Well, I could show you

How every cloud I see in a grey sky

Takes the form of you and I

Try to shield them from my eyes

But your light seeps through my

Fingers though I hold them so tight

As I fall to my knees

Oh, God

For her

I tried

Do I really want to know what you've done with your spare time?

Pictures hanging on a wall

They're imposed inside your mind

Seems the grass is always oh so green on your side compared to mine

You paint a picture that is so serene

I wish you'd take my eyes
