Steve Pineo - Don't Say I Never Tried Lyrics

Some day my darling, tell me you'll pardon the one who's been vilified
You've had your fill of me, say what you will of me but don't say I never tried
We took our chances, 'though circumstances weren't always on our side
Our love was labourous, the odds didn't favour us, but don't say I never tried

I stared in the face of impossible odds, somehow I always prevailed
But I've learned as I turned my back to the gods
Some mountains weren't meant to be scaled

Maybe it's madness to suffer such sadness and say you've enjoyed the ride
Say what you want of me, a frontal lobotomy, no need to hold it inside
But don't say I never, don't say I never, don't say I never tried

I used to glow in the fire of your eyes, drawn like a moth to a flame
The fire is gone and I now realize, some tigers weren't meant to be tame

So let's make amends dear, try and be friends dear, swallow that foolish pride
We made a mess of it, so second guess a bit no need to hold it inside
But don't say I never, don't say I never, don't say I never tried
Don't say I never tried, Don't say I never tried
