I try

I try to do
The best I can for you
But it seems it's not enough
And you know I care
Even when you're not there
But it not what you want

You close your door
When I wanna give you more
And I feel, I feel so out of place
And you know it's true
Don't you think I'm, good enough for you

instrument

Can't you see
That you're hurting me
And I want, I want this pain to stop
So if you really care
I mean if you really, really care
Then open up your heart to me
Open up to meeee....

You know that I tried to be with you
You know that I wanted to make it through
You know that I needed to make you mine
It was just a matter of time


You know that I tried to be with you
You know that I wanted to see it through
You know that I needed to make you mine
It was only a matter of time

You know that I tried to be with you
You know that I wanted to see it through
You know that I needed to make you mine
It was only a matter of time
(repeat)

I'm on your side

[Verse 1]
In the game of love
Sometimes we get left behind
When pushing comes to shove
Happiness is so hard to find

A fall from love can break your spirit
Paint a rosy outlook blue
Darling, you don't have to fear it
Cause baby
I'm here for you

[Chorus]
I'm on your side
When times are hard
And you need some understanding

I'm on your side
When times gets rough
And no one else can care enough
I'm on your side to be for you

[Verse 2]
You can say you're free
Sometimes you're the last to know
You can come to me
When some heartache lays you low

If your lover leaves you crying
You don't have to be alone
Call my number
Keep on trying
You know that I will be home

[Chorus]
I'm on your side
When times are hard
And you need some understanding

I'm on your side
When times gets rough
And no one else can care enough
I'm on your side to be for you

[Bridge]
Having a friend when you come to the end
Makes it easier
Makes it easier

Come back to me
I can save you
When she tries to tear you apart
Tear you apart
I won't break your heart

[Chorus]
I'm on your side
When times are hard
And you need some understanding

I'm on your side
When times gets rough
And no one else can care enough
I'm on your side to be for you

for you
