[Verse 1]
I thought you wouldn't love me if I didn't do everything right
So I lied to tell the truth
I hid myself most of all from you
Good was never perfect
Perfect never could be good enough for me
[Chorus]
But I tried and I failed
And you loved me
Oh, I tried and I failed
And you loved me
[Verse 2]
I had all the answers
That was easier than facing the dark
And I sold my story until the story started falling apart
Every secret spoken, out there in the open
I've pretended not to see
[Chorus]
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
[Bridge]
I may never understand why I walked so far away
I may never understand what it is that makes you stay
[Chorus]
When I try, when I fail
And you love me
When I try and I fail
And you love me
And I try and I fail
And you love me
And I try and I fail
And you loved me
