Tried So Hard - Fairport Convention

Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home

I had to realize this time that I’d be all alone

Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow

And though I tried so hard to please her

She said she really had to go

Even though this time it really hurts me bad

I’ve been through similarities, it’s not the first break I’ve had

And I just can’t let it bring me down so low

And though I tried so hard to please her

There must be something more to know

Never thought that we would find our end this way

It seemed that everything was going fine

Still with all the things that I can do or say

It won’t change the fate I know so well is mine

So I’ll stop and look right past the pain

Because I’ve been in love before and I can love again

While she’s moving somewhere far away not slow

I know I tried so hard to please her

She said she really had to go
