Trying to Love You

I blew out all my plans, the world fell in my hands
The day that I began trying to love you
The secrets I have kept, the nights I haven't slept
I've laughed until I've wept trying to love you

Trying to love you
No one's come as close or gone so far
Trying to love you
I've lost and found myself in who you are
Trying to love you
So easy and so hard, trying to love you

I've watched myself get stuck, I squandered all my luck
I've almost given up trying to love you

Trying to love you
It broke my heart, it's chipped away my pride
Trying to love you
Every time I'd see that fault line slide
Trying to love you
I've crossed the great divide trying to love you

Trying to love you
I've screamed your name, I've slammed a thousand doors
Trying to love you
I've worn a million miles across the floor
Trying to love you
Still I could not ignore trying to love you

It's pulled the best from me for all the world to see
And I will always be trying to love you
