Trouble handling the loss of a loved one...
Thanks for listening and commenting.
I Keep On Trying
by: Marc DeRose
V1
I remember a time we went dancing, and twirled around on the floor.
The other people started clapping, and they shouted out for more.
Well, later on that evening, with the moon and stars above.
I looked in your eyes and knew we were both in love.
V2
Spring came with all of its blossoms. And love came with all of its joys.
The two of us were so happy, the rest of the world was just noise.
Me holding on to my lady, and you holding onto your shoes.
Well, who could believe we would ever be singing the blues?
Chorus
Even though I keep on trying, I can't keep myself from crying.
Holding you when you were dying, chilled me to the bone.
You were the reason I could function. Now I'm set on self-destruction.
Girl, my life has no production. I'm so alone.
V3
Winter came with so much fury, it attacked our house on the hill.
We tried so hard to stay healthy, but it wasn't long and you were ill.
Doctors came to treat you, but they couldn't find a cure.
It just wasn't fair, you were way too young and pure.
Repeat Chorus
Break
I whispered in your ear, "Girl, I'll love you more each day".
You opened your eyes and smiled at me. Then you slipped away.
V4
I got myself a ladder, and climbed up high in a tree.
The birds and squirrels all scattered, making room for me.
Well, sitting high in those branches, enabled me to see.
Nothing on earth, could bring you back to me.
Repeat Chorus
End
