WE'RE TRYING(response to 12Gauge858 I'm trying)

V4.5-ALL

[Intro] You’re trying… And baby, I still believe in us… ⸻ [Verse 1] I see it in your eyes when you walk in All that weight you’re quietly holding You say you’re scared you’ll never be enough But baby, I just wanna learn your love ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I wasn’t taught to talk like this Didn’t grow up seeing love like this I only know what I’ve been shown But you and me, we can make our own ⸻ [Chorus] I’m trying… ‘Cause I still wanna love you right We’re trying… We don’t gotta win each fight When the words get tangled in our throats We can write ‘em down in little notes Baby, we were always meant to be So let’s learn how to love patiently ⸻ [Verse 2] You say you don’t listen, just react But I know the hurt behind all that I hear the fear inside your breathing You’re so tired of always leaving I don’t want you to walk away Let’s hold on tighter every day ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] We can go talk it out, just you and me Sit in that room and face the messy Therapy, more late-night drives More little dates to keep us alive When we can’t find the words to speak We’ll write them out, line by line each week ⸻ [Chorus] I’m trying… ‘Cause I still wanna love you right We’re trying… Learning how to lose the fights Every word don’t have to be a test We’re allowed to grow, to try our best Baby, I still choose you in this And I know together we can fix it ⸻ [Bridge] If you hold me… We can learn to understand We’re not running, we’re gonna stay… We were always meant to walk this plan Side by side, we’ll find our way ⸻ [Final Chorus] We’re trying… And baby, trying is enough We’re trying… ‘Cause I still believe in us When loving you starts hurting me We’ll slow it down and breathe, just breathe Write it down ‘til the pages sing Talk it out ‘til our hearts can ring We’re trying… Forever’s what I see We’re trying… You and me, we’ll always be ⸻ [Outro] We’re trying… Forever, you and me… ⸻
