tried a million things to make you mine

I have been lied to over and over,
and cheated on a dozen times,
I have tried and tried and tried,
a million things to make you mine.

I was stabbed in the back,
with the sharpest of knives,
and I was hurt so bad,
I tried taking my own life.

my tears could have filled an ocean,
with the many times I cried,
and I embarrassed myself so many times,
I was forced to swallow my pride.

but all of that is over now,
and none of it even matters,
because if I had the chance again,
I would make it turn out better.

I would suffer a thousand heartaches,
and cry a billion tears,
if it meant for only a minute,
that I could have you here.
