I Shouldn't Have Tried

I'm sorry that I caused so much damage
There's no way now for me to redeem
I only wanted to be near you
I only wanted you to be near me

Who are you with right now?
I tried to catch you before you found her.
But when I had the chance to be near you
I made you mad,. made u wish u were around her

What am I to do now?
Everything I ever wanted is gone.
There's nobody to blame but myself
For everything that went wrong
I should be with someone older
But that's not what I want to do
At least not right now
My only source of happiness is you
I want to be in your arms again
Your bed again
By your side again
But I pushed that away
I tried harder than I should have
I shouldn't have tried at all

I'm giving it time now
I'm leaving you alone
At least I'm trying my hardest
Not to call you on the phone

I think about you everyday
I dream about you at night
I think of what I should say
If the moment is right

What am I to do now?
Everything I ever wanted is gone.
There's nobody to blame but myself
For everything that went wrong
I should be with someone older
But that's not what I want to do
At least not right now
My only source of happiness is you
I want to be in your arms again
Your bed again
By your side again
But I pushed that away
I tried harder than I should have
I shouldn't have tried at all

I pray u don't forget me
I pray you'll change your mind
But you said I wasn't the one for you
It's a lot to take in at one time

I know I'll never be yours
I've finally realized that you just didn't want ME
I'm not what you're looking for
You want anyone else that isn't me

What am I to do now?
Everything I ever wanted is gone.
There's nobody to blame but myself
For everything that went wrong
I should be with someone older
But that's not what I want to do
At least not right now
My only source of happiness is you
I want to be in your arms again
Your bed again
By your side again
But I pushed that away
I tried harder than I should have
I shouldn't have tried at all

Well, I'm facing the truth now
I've heard all that I can hear
Not just from you, but from all I know
I'm not someone that somebody wants near

At least not for more than a night
Maybe just a quick fling
I guess you were right
I'm not worth more than just a thing

What am I to do now?
Everything I ever wanted is gone.
There's nobody to blame but myself
For everything that went wrong
I should be with someone older
But that's not what I want to do
At least not right now
My only source of happiness is you
I want to be in your arms again
Your bed again
By your side again
But I pushed that away
I tried harder than I should have
I shouldn't have tried at all

Well I hope you find what you're looking for
I hope you eventually feel what you need
I know inside that you could have felt it
You could have found that with me.

But I will never convince you
You will never know the truth
If there were anytime I could change
It would've been with you

I was never in love
But I loved all our times
I hope you keep me in your heart
You'll always stay in mine.
