I Tried Songtext
von The Real Group

I didn′t wanna hurt you
I didn't wanna hurt myself
You kept talking about the trust we must have
But I′m sorry to say I couldn't play it your way

Oh, I wanted to be honest
And honesty can hurt so much
Was afraid of all the pain it would cause
I was afraid of what I knew
Deep down and I'm telling it all to you

I tried, I tried, I tried
I screamed and I whispered
And I fought and I loved
I tried, I tried, I tried
(And I tried) I tried a little more
Wasn′t fighting a war
There just wasn′t any love in store
No, no, no, no, no, no


I had to betray you
Or I would have betrayed myself
You kept saying it was the same old thing
But I'm afraid I didn′t see it that way, no

I know it may be wrong
To say I had to betray to be true
I admit I had run out of things that were right
And I just hope you can forgive
So we can both start to live

I tried, I tried, I tried
I screamed and I whispered
And I fought and I loved
I tried, I tried, I tried
Tried a little more
Wasn't fighting a war
There just wasn′t any love in store

I tried, I tried, I tried
I screamed and I whispered
I fought and I loved
I tried a little more
Wasn't fighting a war
There just wasn′t any love in store (love in store)


Now I tried, I tried, I tried
I screamed and I whispered
And I fought and I loved
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried a little more
Wasn't fighting any war
There just wasn't any love in store
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
