I'm Trying

Oh, I can't change what's done is done But I can tell you this Not a day goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins And I need you to hold on too While this part of me is dyin' Though I haven't kicked the demons that haunt me I'm trying I'm trying She sat down on the floor And said, I wish that I was stronger Right now I feel as fragile as glass And I want to believe you Believe what's held you has freed you And I hate these doubts that keep on coming back My parents think I'm crazy For hangin' on this long But there's nothing I want nore for us Than to prove to them they're wrong And I don't wanna be afraid I don't wanna think you're lyin' Though I haven't found the faith that I need I'm trying I'm trying He asked, "Do you want me to leave Cause if you do you know I will" But she said, "Much to his disbelief No, I love you still Oh, I love you still" He said, " I don't know why I've been the fool But I can tell you this" Not a day goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins Then he dropped down to his knees By now they both were cryin' He said, I haven't been the man I wanna be But I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying
