Lyrics
V1
I think about how trying love can be
How my ego shatters so easily
How I count on the uncertainty
And only wish that I knew when?
V2
And I think about how you left that day
How you said something about a cage
How you looked at me with quiet rage
And I felt broken once again?
C1
But I keep thinking about?Trying Love
There?s a simple plan I?m?Thinking Of
Sometimes a heart can heal ?Just Enough
To keep thinking about Trying Love.
V3
I think about how you shared your light
How you stayed with me on that winter night
How you told me what you keep inside
And it changed the way I see
V4
And I think about how you still say hello
How you smile a little before you go
How there?s a part of you you?re just afraid to show
But you may show again to me?
C2
So I keep thinking about?Trying Love
There?s a simple plan I?m?Thinking Of
Sometimes a heart can heal ?Just Enough
To keep thinking about Trying Love.
Bridge
I could find the hurt, and say you put it there
Close the door saying, ?I don?t care?
I could shut you out, but that would never do
Cuz I?ll always know? the truth about you?
C3
That?s why I?m thinking about?Trying Love
There?s a simple plan I?m?Thinking Of
Sometimes a heart can heal ?Just Enough
To keep thinking
I still haven?t ruled it out
I keep thinking about?Trying Love.
