TRISHA YEARWOOD LYRICS - We Tried

"We Tried"



I and my daddy went out to drink, my momma will not cry

I'm honest when I tell the truth and I'm lying when I lie

And there's a lot of things that I don't do

'Cause I don't follow it through like

I want to but I don't want to



The devil's beggin' for my time, the good Lord for my soul

I'm always easier to catch then I ever been the whore

I'm a twisted rose of..., last thing that I need

Is to want you 'cause I don't want to



But that ain't what this love's about

My heart ain't on my side

And if someday it don't work out

Then we can say we tried



I'm not afraid of anything but now I'm running scared

I know the hurt this could bring is more than I could bear

I'm tired of wearing lonely shoes, I've nothing left to lose

That I don't want to but I don't want to



'Cause that ain't what this love's about

My heart ain't on my side

And if someday it don't work out

Then we can say we tried



That ain't what this love's about

My heart ain't on my side

And if someday it don't work out

Then we can say we tried

Yeah, we can say we tried
