We Tried
The world is changing all the time
And you know it ain't right
Yeah, I know you think twice
And love, it takes you on a ride
And leaves you with no respite
Well, I think I've done my time
But I
I don't want to cry
So take me where the bluebirds sing
While we lose everything
There's too much poisoning
And fly me where the birds still fly
'Cause smoke fills up our sky
'Cause we ran out of time
Oh well, we tried
Well, maybe this was meant to be
A mother wanted peace
And we were not conceived
Or maybe we were meant to win
But not enough good drowned out the sin
They watched the world cave in
But I
I can't work out why
So take me where the bluebirds sing
While we lose everything
There's too much poisoning
And fly me where the birds still fly
'Cause smoke fills up our sky
'Cause we ran out of time
Oh well, we tried
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
Oh well, we tried
And you know it ain't right
Yeah, I know you think twice
And love, it takes you on a ride
And leaves you with no respite
Well, I think I've done my time
But I
I don't want to cry
So take me where the bluebirds sing
While we lose everything
There's too much poisoning
And fly me where the birds still fly
'Cause smoke fills up our sky
'Cause we ran out of time
Oh well, we tried
Well, maybe this was meant to be
A mother wanted peace
And we were not conceived
Or maybe we were meant to win
But not enough good drowned out the sin
They watched the world cave in
But I
I can't work out why
So take me where the bluebirds sing
While we lose everything
There's too much poisoning
And fly me where the birds still fly
'Cause smoke fills up our sky
'Cause we ran out of time
Oh well, we tried
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
(We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried)
Oh well, we tried
