I Tried

You tried to take me to heaven

But I lost you along the way

I tried to find you in seven

Hundred thousand different ways

I tried to break into heaven

But they laughed, and turned me away

I tried to change the weather

For a month, for a year, no sea was calm

Even though I said to you

I could see your soul and I know

I could feel your life as it grows

I could see the wind as it blows

You tried to teach me a lesson

But I laughed, and turned you away

I tried to stop and it's seven

Hundred thousand there's no way

To shape the things that I'm missing

To sharpen the space that you've known

I tried to change to another

But fear for the worst when the sea was gone

Even though I said to you

I could see your soul and I know

I could feel your life as it grows

I could see the wind as it blows

Slow down, slow down

Where's the loving?

You gotta stay close, stay close, stay close

Even though I said to you

I could see your soul and I know

I could feel your life as it grows

I could see the wind as it blows
