  • I blew out all my plans
    The world fell in my hands
    The day that I began
    Trying to love you
    The secrets I have kept
    The nights I haven't slept
    I've laughed until I've wept

    Trying to love you
    Trying to love you... No one's come as close or gone so far
    Trying to love you... I've lost and found myself in who you are
    Trying to love you... So easy and so hard, trying to love you

    I've watched myself get stuck
    Squandered all my luck
    But I cannot give up

    Trying to love you
    Trying to love you... It broke my heart, it's chipped away my pride
    Trying to love you... Everytime I'd see that faultline slide
    Trying to love you... I've crossed the great divide trying to love you

    [Instrumental Break]

    Trying to love you... I've screamed your name, I've slammed a thousand doors
    Trying to love you... I've worn a million miles across the floor
    Trying to love you... Still I could not ignore trying to love you

    It's pulled the best from me
    For all the world to see
    And I will always be
    Trying to love you Writer/s: BETH NIELSEN CHAPMAN, JOHN WILLIAM LLOYD
