Ricky Nelson - I Tried lyrics

rate me

(J. Fuller)

You said to go out and find another girl

Well, I tried

Well yes, I looked all over this world

And I tried.

Some were pretty, some even rich

Still you know I'd rather fight than switch

'Cause each lonely day that I've been away

I've cried.

I tried to forget you

Leave my past behind

I tried oh, and yet you seem

To always be here on my mind.

When you told me you never cared

You lied

Don't deny at times you were oh

So satisfied.

I always knew that our love could be

If you'd only gone about it like me

I did the one thing you never seem to do

I tried.

I tried to forget you

Leave my past behind

I tried oh, and yet you seem to

Always be here on my mind.

When you told me you never cared

You lied

Don't deny at times you were oh

So satisfied.

I always knew that our love could be

If you'd only gone about it like me

I did the one thing you never seem to do

I tried.

I tried, I tried, I tried, baby I tried.

I tried, baby I tried, I tried, baby I tried...
