TRIED

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON 2016

 YOU NEED SO MUCH HEART

TO TAKE YOU ALL THE WAY

IF YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT ENOUGH TO MAKE IT

I'LL SEE YOU OUT THERE IN THE SUN

AND WHEN THE SKIES TURN COLD AND GRAY

AND RAIN BEGINS TO FALL ON ALL YOUR DAYS

YOU'LL RISE ABOVE IT ALL

JUST BE ON YOUR WAY

NOTHING TO STOP YOU, WHATEVER THEY SAY

WHATEVER LIFE THROWS AT YOU

YOU ONLY TAKE THE GOOD INSIDE

AND LEAVE EVERYTHING ELSE BY THE WAYSIDE

ISN'T THAT THE WAY TO BE

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW FAR YOU'VE COME

UNTIL YOU STOP AND TURN AROUND

TIME WENT BY, IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE

YOU'RE STILL STANDING AND SO AM I

THE THINGS WE BUILT UP FROM THE GROUND

THAT DISAPPEARED WITHOUT A SOUND

WE CUT OUR LOSSES AND CARRIED ON

HAPPY YOU, HAPPY ME, JUST HAPPY, FOR EACH DAY WE SEE

I TRIED TO FIND MY WAY

I TRIED TO FIND MY LOVE

I TRIED TO SHINE, I TRIED TO SAY

I'VE DONE ALL THIS BEFORE

I TRIED TO TELL YOU, YOU'D BE THE ONE I ADORED

I TRIED TO KEEP SMILING THROUGH EVERY STORM

I TRIED TO MASK THE PAIN, TRYING TO BEND MY FORM

I TRIED TO LEAVE ALL THE DRAMA BEHIND

I TRIED TO LEAVE ALL THE SAME OLD SAME

SOME OF IT JUST WON'T GO, EXCEPT OVER AGAIN
