I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myselfThat you would be back(You would be back)I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myselfThat you would be back(You would be back)Oh, though you said you wouldI only wish you couldI know I'm trying to be someoneSay I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myselfYou got to ride(You got to ride)Oh, I tried to tell myself, I triedI really tired to sleep at night(Sleep at night)Before the break of dayTurning another page into life's mysteryAnd the light of dayI can now hear you sayI then take this tripWith me to eternityOh, I tried to tell myself, I tried to tell myselfYou need a friend(You need a friend)Oh and as soon as I wake upThe sun begin to shine, I start to rain(Start to rain)I see you finally made itAll the time you waitedI, I could be with youI see you finally made itAll the time you waitedNow I wanna be with you, oh yeahI tried to tell myselfI tried to tell myselfI don't wanna ever leave youI tried to tell myselfI tried to tell myselfI never want you to ever leave me all aloneI tried to tell myselfI never want you to ever leave me awayI tried to tell myselfI tried to tell myselfI don't want you to ever leave me all alone
