I Tried - Kim Richey

I watch the sunset fade on promises I made

Promises and good intentions lost along the way

I know I hurt you bad, and I blame myself for that

I blame myself, but that won’t change a thing

I tried, I tried, I tried

To love the best I could

Love you like I said I would

Like I said I would

There’s nothing I can do to make this right with you

I know you don’t forgive me and I don’t expect you to

But, I’m sorry anyway;

I’m sorry every day

Sorry’s nothing, nothing new

I tried, I tried, I tried

To love the best I could

Love you like I said I would

Like I said I would

A little distance, that’s all I need

A few more hours, a few more miles

And I’ll forget you meant the world to me

Yeah, I tried, I tried, I tried

To love the best I could

Love you like I said I would

Like I said I would

Like I said I would
