| Every time I try to tell where you’re goin' wrong
|
| You run and hide your head and call me crazy
|
| All I tried to tell you was that you could get it on
|
| If you just wouldn’t be so lazy
|
| Oh, what can we do, oh I tried to tell you, everything is true
|
| I’m tryin' to tell you I’ve tried everything I knew, ooh, to try and tell you
|
| The truth … I wanna tell you the truth, baby, I wouldn’t ever lie to you
|
| I’m gonna tell you the truth now
|
| Every time I try to point out the way you’re goin' down
|
| You run and drown another jug of whiskey
|
| And when I said you had to get together, try to love you brother
|
| Did I hit you with too heavy of a mystery?
|
| Oh, what can we do, I believe in you, how can I tell you, everything is true
|
| I tried to tell you, I tried everything I knew, ooh to try to tell you
|
| The truth … I wanna tell you the truth, baby, tell you the truth
|
| And no I’d never lie to you, ooh, to try to tell you the truth, baby, truth
|
| I wouldn’t never never never …
|
| I watch you count the spaces passing by
|
| Makes me want to cry, get the strangest kind of old lonely
|
| As the oceans overlfow with people come and people go
|
| And still you’re only make-believin'
|
| Baby, what can we do? |
| I believe in you, how can I tell you, everything is true
|
| And I tried to tell you the truth … |
