[00:00.54]Martina Mcbride - I'm Trying
[00:13.98]She said I'm not pointing fingers,
[00:17.79]He said yes you are,
[00:19.98]
[00:20.60]cause you wouldn't bring it up if you weren't.
[00:26.85]And if I'd told you I'd been walking
[00:30.35]out in the dark night thinking
[00:33.79]Would you take as truth this alcoholic's word?
[00:37.42]
[00:39.92]Oh I can't change, what's done is done,
[00:43.35]but I can tell you this
[00:46.29]Not a day goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins
[00:51.42]
[00:52.74]and I need you to hold on too,
[00:56.24]while this part of me is dying
[00:59.60]Though I haven't kicked the demons that haunt me,
[01:03.23]
[01:05.35]I'm trying, I'm trying.
[01:14.91]
[01:18.79]She sat down on the floor and said I wish that I was stronger
[01:25.73]Right now I feel as fragile as glass.
[01:29.98]
[01:31.29]And I want to believe you,
[01:34.16]believe what's held you has freed you,
[01:37.85]and I hate these doubts that keep on comin' back.
[01:43.67]
[01:44.35]My parents think I'm crazy for hangin' on this long,
[01:50.60]but there's nothing I want more for us
[01:53.66]than to prove to them they're wrong.
[01:57.23]And I don't want to be afraid,
[01:59.66]I don't wanna think you're lying,
[02:02.23]
[02:02.85]And though I haven't found the faith that I need,
[02:06.48]
[02:08.85]I'm trying. I'm trying.
[02:18.64]
[02:22.14]He asks do you want me to leave?
[02:29.82]Cause if you do you know I will,
[02:34.20]but she says, much to his disbelief,
[02:42.95]No, I love you still.
[02:47.70]
[02:50.64]Oh, I love you still.
[02:54.07]
[02:58.14]He said I don't know why I've been the fool,
[03:02.01]but I can tell you this,
[03:04.82]not a day goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins.
[03:10.26]
[03:10.95]Then he dropped down to his knees,
[03:14.64]By now they both were crying,
[03:17.14]He said, I haven't been the man I want to be,
[03:21.64]
[03:23.39]But I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying, I'm trying.
