I Tried - Anthony Hamilton

Tried for so long

For you to hold on

But you won’t be long to anyone

Anything, any love at all

I thought we had it all until things started to recede

Giving me no love at all not caring enough about my needs

Gave you my heart and all my soul but not once did I let go

And I tried to stick by you and I tried to call to let you know

That I’m here for you and I’m give my all

You had the best love of you life

But you didn’t treat it right, no you didn’t, no you didn’t girl

To busy running out all night long, didn’t even have the decency to pick up the

telephone

And call me, and let me know where you were

And that your alright, so I could sleep at night

Girl you showed out so

Had the nerve to break up our happy home

All I wanted to do for was let you know

I stood by your side, sheltered for you

When things were down, I help pull you through

Faithful and all, trusting and warm

But you took heart by storm
