I Tried

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a house by the beach with a dog on the sheets Where the sunshine always shines There's a ring on your hand and I'm still in the band And I hold you every night [Chorus] But I lied, I lied I wasted all your time Made a promise that I could never keep But I swear to God I tried [Post-Chorus] Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh [Verse 2] With my feet on the ground and my head in the clouds I hope I find my way Yeah, my heart's still yours, but my dream is the world So for now I just can't stay [Chorus] But I'll try, I'll try I won't sleep a single night So when I see this through, I'll come back for you I'll come back for you [Post-Chorus] Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh [Outro] When my limbs grow old and my heart goes cold And they lay me down to rest I won't toss or turn, I won't let it burn 'Cause I'll know I tried my best But I pray, I pray You'll come back to me one day Gave up everything for my hopes and dreams Now I wish I would've stayed
