Tells me she needs him
Or really, truly needs some lovin'
Just give me some attention now, baby
She writes him a letter sayin'
Sayin' things, yeah, things'll get better
It takes some time to show a little affection She's only tryin'
She's only tryin',
baby She's only tryin' not to bring him down
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin', babe
She's only tryin' to keep him on the ground
You know I've walked so far
And that's why I try so hard
You're a flower and I'm just the dough
And now my pride is dyin'
I guess I can't just keep on lyin'
Can't you see that all of my pain is for you?
There's so many words I'd say But they get stuck out inside
I push her away
I push her away
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin', baby
She's only tryin' not to bring him down
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin',
baby She's only tryin' to keep him on the ground
The time we take to make the love we make
Sometimes it feels like a big mistake
And that's the choice that you've got to choose
And all those days that you'd hesitate
The year's right by but it's never too late
Don't hesitate
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin', baby
She's only tryin' not to bring him down
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin', babe
She's only tryin' to keep him on the ground
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin', baby
She's only tryin' not to bring him down
She's only tryin'
She's only tryin',
baby She's only tryin' to keep him on the ground
