You Loved Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I thought you wouldn't love me
If I didn't do everything right
So I lied to tell the truth
And hid myself most of all from you
Good was never perfect
Perfect never could be
Good enough for me
But I tried and I failed
And you loved me
I tried and I failed
And you loved me
I had all the answers
That was easier than facing the dark
And I sold my story
Until the story started falling apart
Every secret spoken
Out there in the open
I've pretended not to see
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
I may never understand
Why I walked so far away
I may never understand
What it is that makes you stay
When I try, when I fail
And you love me
When I try and I fail
And you love me
And I try and I fail
And you love me
And I try and I fail
And you love me
