I Tried

[Verse 1]
There's a house in 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
[Verse 2]
With my feet on the ground
And my head in the clouds
I hope I'll 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
When I see this through I'll come back for you
I'll come back for you
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Outro]
When my limbs grow old
And my heart goes cold
And they lay me down to rest
I will toss and turn, I will let it burn
'Cause I know I tried my best
But I prayed, I prayed
You'll come back to me one day
Give up everything, all my hopes and dreams
Now I wish I would've stayed
