Tried So Hard [#] Lyrics
Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
I've been through similarities
It's not the first break I've had
And I just can't let it bring me down too low
And though I tried so hard to please her
There must be something more to know
Never thought that we would end this way
It seemed that everything was going fine
Still with all the things that I can do or say
It won't change the fate I know so well is mind
So I'll stop and look right past the pain
Cause I've been in love before and I can love again
While she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
I've been through similarities
It's not the first break I've had
And I just can't let it bring me down too low
And though I tried so hard to please her
There must be something more to know
Never thought that we would end this way
It seemed that everything was going fine
Still with all the things that I can do or say
It won't change the fate I know so well is mind
Cause I've been in love before and I can love again
While she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go

the last line on this song is so sad, every previous line lead up to that ending, "she said she really had to go". im sure everyone has an idea of what this means, crippling heartbreak after a long-winded fight trying to prevent the one you love from leaving you for good. after everything youve done, trying your hardest to please the one you love, they still end up leaving you in the end. truly one of the most saddest breakup songs of all time. if youre reading this and going through a difficult time and listening to this song, i wish you the best.<3
