You Can't Say I Haven't Tried

(album: Fallin' For You For Years - 1986)

I only wish you'd listen,
I have never told you lies.
These things you think you're missing
In the world out there do not satisfy.

I will not blame you if you leave
This has never been your home
But I'll always make you welcome here
'Til you can make it on your own.

When it all is going crazy
And you've got no place to hide
As I steal across your memory
You can't say I haven't tried.

I believe you really love me
But I guess what's done is done
They say time can make a difference
But a thousand years wouldn't change it none.

So, I guess there ain't much else to say
I won't keep you from your dreams
Just remember what you want the most
Isn't always what it seems.

When it all is going crazy
And you've got no place to hide
As I steal across your memory
You can't say I haven't tried...
