"We Tried" lyrics

"We Tried"

We tried to keep a secret, yes we did
I guess by now everybody knows
We deny the things they ask us
But guilt I guess, it really shows

We had our times and now I guess it's over
We'll take the bitter, ooh we'll take the bitter with the sweet
I act as though I hardly know you
When we meet in the street
I guess we better, ooh I guess we better end it
It'll be harder, ooh if we wait

At least we tried to make a go of it
We better stop now before it's too late
I hate the thought, ooh of losing you
After all, all the times that we tried
These things, ooh these things happen
Even though neither one of us wants to say goodbye

We tried, ooh we tried to keep a secret, yes we did
I guess by now everybody knows
Oh I know we tried, yes we did
Maybe I'll see you one day soon
If you see me, walk on by
It's over, but at least we tried
Ooh we tried, I know we tried

We tried, oh I know we tried
