Tried So Hard

Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
I've been thru similarities
It's not the first break I've had
And I just can't let it bring me down too low
'Cause I tried so hard to please her
There must be something more to know
Never thought that we would find out end this way
It seemed that everything was going fine
Still with all the things that I can do or say
It won't change the fate I know so well is mine
So I'll stop again and look right past the pain
Because I've been in love before and I can love again
While she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
