I'm tired of fighting,
Got a fever when you try to get out
I've tried but i can't understand what all the fuss is about
I wish that i could be the man that you wanted me to be
I need you to see...

I try and i try yet i can't seem to fly (you know i try)
My souls full of pain when you cry (when you cry, baby when you cry)
I wish i was perfect and god knows i try
But everything i do just tears your heart in two
I wonder why

I never thought that being lovers meant that we can't be friends
If only i could understand what makes you feel it's the end
What can i say to make you stay and stop breaking free from me?
I need you to see (that i)

I try and i try yet i can't seem to fly (you know i try)
My souls full of pain when you cry (when you cry, baby when you cry)
I wish i was perfect and god knows i try
But everything i do (everything i do)
Just tears your heart in two
I wonder why

Can't you see it's killing me?
It's not the way things used to be
Can you remember yesterdays
(yesterday we used to smile)
We used to smile without a care
Whenever you and i were near
Can't you see that i want to be with you?
Everything i do tears your heart in two

(i try)
I try and i try yet i can't seem to fly (you know i try)
My souls full of pain when you cry (when you cry, baby when you cry)
I wish i was perfect and god knows i try
But everything i do just tears your heart in two
I wonder why

I try and i try yet i can't seem to fly (you know i try)
(i can't seem to fly)
My souls full of pain when you cry (when you cry, baby when you cry)
I wish i was perfect and god knows i try (god knows, god knows i try)
But everything i do just tears your heart in two
I wonder why

I try and i try yet i can't seem to fly (you know i try)
My souls full of pain when you cry (when you cry, baby when you cry)
I wish i was perfect...
