I Tried

Anthony Hamilton

Chorus

Tried for so long for you to hold on

But you won't be long to anyone

Any thang, any love at all



Verse I

I thought we had it all until things started to receed

Giving me no love at all not caring enough about my needs

Gave you my heart and all my soul but not once did I let go

And I tried to stick by you and I tried to call to let you know

That I'm here for you and I'm give my all



Chorus

Tried for so long for you to hold on

But you want belong to anyone

Any thang, any love at all



Verse II

You had the best love of you life

But you didn't treat it right, no you didn't, no you didn't girl

To busy running out all night long, didn't even have the decency to just

Pick up the telephone , and just call me , and let me know where you were

And that your alright , so I can sleep at night , girl you showed out so

Had the nerve to break up our happy home , all I wanna do , is do for you



Chorus

Tried for so long , for you to hold on

But you want be long , to anyone

Any thang, any love , at all



I stood by your side , sheltered for you , when things were down

I help pull you through , Faithful and all , trusting and warm , but you took heart by storm



Chorus

(Repeat)
