Tryin' (The Sad Mix)

about

You get nostalgic for "the good old days." When I first wrote this song it made me feel like I could really write songs. I just liked it from start to finish and thought that 6-7 years later I'd give it another listen and see if it had evolved. I'm glad I did.

lyrics

V1:
Standin face to face, with your hands in mine
I wonder what you're thinking, I wonder all the time
Looking in your eyes, your thoughts cry out to me
You seem so ashamed of what used to be

V2:
Shy and so afraid, I don't know what to do
Tryin to hold back, these feelings I have for you
I want to kiss you so, I want to feel your touch
So tell me your life, it means to me so much

Chorus 1:
I'll love you anyway, no matter what it is you say
I'll be there through your pain
Confide in me because tonight I could see
Two lives as one in the rain, two lives as one in the rain

V3:
I'm so bad with words, you deserve so much more
Tryin to do my best, to be who you're lookin for
Each word is so bad, they all come out so wrong
Please accept my faults, believe my humble song

Chorus 2:
I love you everyday, through thick and thin, black white or gray
I'll hold on just the same
People come and go but together we can grow as
Two lives as one in the rain, two lives as one in the rain
