I Try - Rahsaan Patterson

And I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

So I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

Oh, I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Oh, I)

And though you tryna deny it

I’m a part of who you are

Despite the strain of advances

I’m happy with you, it’s true

From the start of phase one

I committed to loving you forever

Though you disappear

With every pour and sip you take from the bottle

And so it goes

And I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

So I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

Oh, I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Oh, I)

Ain’t no use tryna deny it

I’m as imperfect as you are (You are, you are, you are, you are)

Mistakes are made, I acknowledged

Apologetically to you (To you, I did apologize)

I believe in your love

Even though we’re currently not together

When you come around (When you come around)

I hope at least you’re communicating better, better (I hope that we’re better)

And I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

So I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Every time you go)

Oh, I cry and I try

And I try and I cry and I (Oh, I)

The wait is done

The wait is done

The wait is done

The wait is done (The wait)

The wait is done

The wait is done

The wait is done (It's done, it’s done, it’s done, it’s done)

The wait is done

The wait is done

The wait is done

Every time

Every time you go

Every time

Every time you go

Every time (I hope that we’re better)

Every time you go

Every time

Every time you go

Every time (I hope that we’re better)

Every time you go

Greet me with a smile and I try
