Bother To Try


The rain is pouring down again
I feel like I just lost a friend
The best one I could ever have
And still they say it's not so bad

How could they know what they can't feel?
Unless it's them, it can't be real
Feelings never work out in the end

Well we pretend that we're okay
But we get lost along the way

Well I let you down but think you should know
I never really wanted to let you go
Standing by the doorway as you said goodbye
Watching as the teardrops streamed down your eyes

You didn't think I could understand
Yeah without my wings, I'm just a man
Stray arrows that all drift into the skies

And we're surprised it went away
But there's one thing I've gotta say

Well I let you down but think you should know
I never really wanted to let you go
Standing by the doorway as you said goodbye
Watching as the teardrops streamed down your eyes

And now it haunts me every night
I swear that I don't get no sleep
It seems you're always on my mind, I can't practice what I preach

Nothing's gonna be the same as everything once was
I know that it's the truth and that's because

I let you down but think you should know
I never really wanted to let you go
Standing by the doorway as you said goodbye
Watching as the teardrops streamed down your eyes

Well I let you down but think you should know
I never really wanted to let you go
Standing by the doorway as you said goodbye
Watching as the teardrops streamed down your eyes
I'm sorry that I didn't even bother to try

I guess this is goodbye, I guess this is goodbye
I'm sorry that I never really tried
