I Try
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 tried to do the best i can for you
But it seems not enough
And you know i care
Even when you're not there
But it's not what you want
You close your door when i wanna give you more
(i wanna give you)
And i feel, i feel so out of place
And you know it's true
Don't you think i'm good enough for you?
Can't you see
(can't you see?)
That you're hurting me?
And i want this pain, i want this pain to stop
So if you really care, i mean, if you really really care
Then open up your heart to me
Yes, open up to me, to me, to me, to me
And i really really tried
(you know that i try)
And i try and i try and i try and i try to make you
(you know that i wanted)
You know
(to see you through)
And i try, and tried and i tried
And tried and i tired and tried
And i love you
(you know that i tried)
And i need
(to be with you)
I tried, i need you
(you know that i wanted)
I'll do anything to keep you satisfied my love
(to see you through)
And i tried, i tried
(you know that i needed)
Because i want you and i need you
(you know that i tried)
I tried
I tried, i tried
(you know that i wanted)
Because i needed and i want you my love
