RICHARD ASHCROFT LYRICS - Lord I've Been Trying

"Lord I've Been Trying"



Lord, I've been trying

Trying to keep myself from crying

And it gets hard, there's no use denying

There's been some nights when I did a little lying



Sure feels like I've been here before

Yes it sure feels like I've been here before



Captain tell me where I've been,

Are there waves left there for me?

Is there something left to see?

Is there something left to be?

Oh I know that I'm holding on but I've got time to grow

Alright, alright, alright

Said it's alright, now



Days that I've been spending

And all these blues - they're never ending

And it gets hard, and life will go on again

Gonna shake off these blues, I'm leaving them now



Sure feels like I've been here before

Yes it sure feels like I've been here before



Captain tell me where I've been,

Are there waves left there for me?

Can you see the warning sign

Flashing there in my mind?

My mind is free and I'm talking up to you - I say

"Alright, alright, alright"



(I've been trying)

It feels good, it feels good, it feels good, it feels good, it feels good

(To keep my soul from crying)

My love is alright now,

(I've been trying)

Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it feels right

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it feels right
