I thought you wouldn't love me if I didn't do everything right
So I lied to tell the truth and hid myself most of all from you
Good was never perfect, perfect never could be good enough for me
But I tried and I failed
And you loved me
Oh, I tried and I failed
And you loved me
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
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
And I tried and I failed
And you loved me
I may never understand why I walked so far away
I may never understand what it is that makes you stay

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 love me
