I'm Trying

Diamond Rio feat. Chely Wright

She said i'm not pointing fingers
he said yes you are
'Cause you wouldn't bring it up if you weren't
If i told you i'd been walking
out in the dark night thinking
Would you take as truth this alcoholic's word
I can't change what's done is done 
But i can tell you this 
Not a day goes by that i 
Don't curse myself and all my sins
And i need you to hold on to
While this part of me is dying 
And though i haven't kicked the demons 
That haunt me 
I'm trying
I'm trying

She sat down on the floor 
And said i wish i was stronger
Right now i feel fragile as glass
I want to believe you
believe what's held you has freed you
And i hate these doubts
that keep on coming back
My parent's think i'm crazy
For staying here this long
But there's nothing more i want for us
Than to prove to them they're wrong
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to think you're lying
And though i haven't found the faith
That i need 
I'm trying
I'm trying

He asked do you want me to leave
'Cause if you do you know i will
But she said much to his disbelief 
No i love you still
Oh i love you still

He said i don't know why i've been the fool
But i can tell you this
Not a day goes by that i
Don't curse myself and all my sins
Then he dropped down to his knees
By now they both were crying
He said i haven't been the man i want to be
But i'm trying
I'm trying
I'm trying believe me
I'm trying
