Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

I thought we had it all
Until things started to receed
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Givin' 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, no
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

Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

You had the best love of your life
But you didn't treat it right
No you didn't, no you didn't, girl
Too busy running out all night long
Didn't even have the decency to pick up the telephone
An' 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, do for you
Let you know
All that I love is you

Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

Well, well, well, 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 my heart by storm

Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

Tried for so long
To, to hold on
But you won't belong
To anyone, anything
Any love, at all

Tried for so long
Tried for so long
Tried for so long
