Intro verse 1 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 Oh, I tried and I failed And you loved me verse 2 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 Bridge 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
