"I Try To Talk To You" lyrics

"I Try To Talk To You"
(feat. John Grant)

We could have skipped this part
I could have taught you how to love yourself
I waited patiently
I hoped that you would be the one to come to me
I tried to talk to you
I thought that you would recognize the need
That you had deep inside
But you had to get there by yourself

I don't understand, help me please
Tell me everything and make me see
You know that I would give you anything
I'd take away the pain
I'd take away the sting

You didn't have to go
You didn't have to add this to the mix
You let them use you good
Then they turned around and said you're sick
Is this what you deserve
You're just a man, you are a human being
And will you listen now
This doesn't have to be the way things end

I don't understand, help me please
Tell me everything and make me see
You know that I would give you anything
I'd take away the pain
I'd take away the sting

Help me please
Why don't you come to me

I don't understand, help me please
Tell me everything and make me see
You know that I would give you anything
I'd take away the pain
I'd take away the sting
