lyrics

I'm trying my best but this isn't what I'd hoped for
Come on baby, I can be a good crying shoulder
Lean on me, I'll sing to you, a slow, sad song
I'll kiss you on the cheek, you won't be sad much longer

But baby I know, baby I know, baby I know
The hardest part is letting go
Baby I can tell, baby I can tell, baby I can tell
The hardest part is forgiving yourself

I'm doing what I can, but this isn't what I'd hoped for
Late night calls getting harder to ignore
I try not to lie, but I hate it when your tears fall
Trying to make you happy with my back against the wall
