I Tried Lyrics by Ledisi

Lost & Found

0

[Intro]
I tried, I can't
I don't wanna do this
Let me go
I tried, we tried
I can't do this

[Verse 1]
Phone calls
Hang ups
Break downs
Break ups
People always make up
But sometimes it never last
When the pain is too deep
So bad that you can't sleep
You fussing, fighting
Can't take back what's already been done

Ain't no more to say
Ain't no more to do, yeah
You got to move on
You try your best and you can't turn it loose
It's time for you to let it go
How do you say no
You, you gotta move on

[Chorus]
I tried, you tried, we tried
Time to move on
I gotta move on
I tried, we tried
It's time, time to move on

[Verse 2]
We said we would
Always be one
Different journeys
Too many changes
It wasn't meant to be
My soul's burning
Trying to let go of the pain
No more dreaming
Can't take back what's already been done

Change
I gotta get over you
What we had is through

Baby, I don't wanna do this
Ain't got no regrets
Now it's time for next
Baby I know you know
Baby we tried

We don't know what to say
We've done all we can do
We gotta move on
For some reasons we can't turn it loose
I'm always gonna care about you
But I gotta live without you
We gotta move on

[Chorus]
I tried, you tried, we tried
Time to move on
Time to move on
I tried, we tried
It's time, time to move on

You gotta let me go
Baby, just let me go
You gotta let me go

You gotta let me go
When you gon' let it go
Baby, just let me go

[Chorus]
I tried, you tried, we tried
Time to move on
I gotta move on
I tried, we tried
It's time, time to move on

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

You gotta let me go
Baby, just let me go
