"Love You Right" lyrics

You say we're all the same
I think I'm different
You know I'm tryin' to change
'Cause I know I'm not innocent

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-whoa, my, my

And I know that I can't survive
Without sheddin' a little pride
But to start, could you recognize
It's hard to love you right
It's hard to love you right

I would take off the chain
But you wouldn't stop the rain
And now it's comin' down
Floodin' out this whole house

And I know that I can't survive
Without sheddin' a little pride
But to start, could you recognize
It's hard to love you right
It's hard to love you right

Tryin' to get out
Tryin' to get even
Tryin' to get up off my knees
You piss on the wall
It's nothin' at all
But baby, you know that I'll still forgive you
Had to get out, but you want a reason
Pullin' the curtain down off the ceilin'
I'm gettin' you hard
In the back of the car
But baby, you know that I'll still be leavin'
Tomorrow

And I don't want to take you down
But how could I come around, baby
When you speak like I'm the one
Who was out of line for what I've done
And after all the times that I tried
Just to always come back denied

So I guess I'll never find
The strength to love you right
I will never love you right
