I Tried

You said you love me

Girl, you were wrong

If you wanted this, you would've just come home

You said you needed me

Girl, did you lie?

Tellin' me you miss me, but you won't drive by

I guess, misery loves misery

And I can't help no more

I can't save your soul

I didn't wanna let you go

If this round I well come down, 'cause I can't tell no more

When you feel low

I didn't wanna let you go, but

I'm not your momma

Not your provider, your adviser

My heart was still pained from all that I should've said lighter

But I fight her

Baby, you thought I was older

If I was wiser

Then I would know

How to have kept you, how to protect your mind

'Cause I tried all the things

I provided the thoughts in my mind

That I hope was just lies

And I cared for you, baby

I swear I wanted to be there

So don't ask me how we fell apart

I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

You took me, both our families, and so much love for granted

And it pains me that I had your back when I shouldn't have had it

And I shouldn't be mad

I shouldn't even be sad

'Cause honest I was cold

Still I couldn't let you go, so

I lied to my momma, to save all the drama

That was **** in the past

So that you weren't even honest, till I bought it

Baby, if I was older

If I was wiser

Then I would know

How to have kept you, how to protect your mind

I tried all the things

I provided the thoughts in my mind

That I hope was just lies

And I cared for you, baby

I swear I wanted to be there

So don't ask me how we fell apart

I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

You have to tell me

Girl, I really don't know

I can't let you go

You said you needed me
