I Tried to Tell Myself

Tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myself
That you would be back (you would be back)
I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myself
That you would be back (you would be back)

Oh, though you said you would
I only wish you good
I know I'm trying to be some good

Say I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myself
You got to ride (you got to ride)
Oh, I tried to tell myself, I tried
I really tried to sleep at night (sleep at night)

Before the break of the day
I'm turning another page, yeah, into life's mystery, oh-oh

And the light of the day
I can now hear you say
I then take this trip
With me to eternity

Oh, I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myself
You need a friend (you need a friend)
Oh, and soon as I wake up
The sun begin to shine, I start to rain (start to rain) ooh

I see you finally made it
All the time you waited
I, I could be with you, oh-oh

I see you finally made it
All the time you waited
Now I wanna be with you, oh yeah (ooh)

I tried to tell myself
Tried to tell myself
I don't wanna ever leave you, only you
I tried to tell myself
Tried to tell myself
I never want you to ever leave me all alone

I tried to tell myself
I never want you to ever leave me away
I tried to tell myself
I tried to tell myself
I don't want you to ever leave me all alone
