I’m Trying Songtext
von Martina McBride

She said, " I′m not pointin' fingers"
And he said, "Yes, you are
Cause you wouldn′t bring it up if you weren't"

And if I'd told you I′d been walking out in the dark night thinking
Would you take his truth, his alcohol, his word?

Oh, I can′t change what's done is done
But I can tell you this

Not a day goes by that I don′t curse myself and all my sins
And I need you to hold on too
While this part of me is dyin'
Though I haven′t kicked the demons that haunt me
I'm trying
I′m trying

She sat down on the floor
And said, I wish that I was stronger
Right now I feel as fragile as glass
And I want to believe you
Believe what's held you has freed you
And I hate these doubts that keep on coming back


My parents think I'm crazy
For hangin′ on this long
But there′s nothing I want nore for us
Than to prove to them they're wrong

And I don′t wanna be afraid
I don't wanna think you′re lyin'
Though I haven′t found the faith that I need
I'm trying
I'm trying

He asked, "Do you want me to leave
Cause if you do you know I will"
But she said, "Much to his disbelief
No, I love you still
Oh, I love you still"

He said, " I don′t know why I′ve been the fool
But I can tell you this"

Not a day goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins
Then he dropped down to his knees
By now they both were cryin′
He said, I haven't been the man I wanna be
But I′m trying


I'm trying
I′m trying
I'm trying
