I Tried

[Chorus] Tried for so long
For you to hold on
But you won't be long
To anyone
Any thang, any love
At all [Verse I]
I thought we had it all
Until things started to receed
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 [Chorus]
Tried for so long
For you to hold on
But you want belong
To anyone
Any thang, any love
At all [Verse II]
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 just
Pick up the telephone
And just call me
And let me know where you were
And that your alright
So I can sleep at night
Girl you showed out so
Had the nerve to break up our happy home
All I wanna do
Is do for you [Chorus]
Tried for so long
For you to hold on
But you want be long
To anyone
Any thang, any love
At all 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 [Chorus] [Repeat]
