Someone I Ain't

It wasn't what you said
It's knowin' what you mean
You wanna spread your wings and fly
Where the moment takes you off
You're tryin' hard to be someone you ain't.

It wasn't how you laughed
That taught me how to cry
Convincin' me your heart
Is a million dreams away
You're tryin' hard to be someone you ain't.

You came along when I was down
Found a place within me
All the love I've ever had cannot
Replace the things you did.

I'm still in love with you
And even though you're gone
I gotta try, gotta try
Gotta try, gotta try.

Someday I'm gonna win
And get back to your arms
And here am I alone
With a memory of you
Tryin' hard to be someone I ain't.

We held it in, we gave it out
There wasn't any quarter
All the pieces fell apart
It still ain't like it ought to be.

I'm still in love with you
And even though you're gone
I gotta try, gotta try
Gotta try, gotta try.

You came along when I was down
Found a place within me
All the love I've ever had cannot
Replace the things you did.

I'm still in love with you
And even though you're gone
I gotta try, gotta try
Gotta try, gotta try.

We held it in, we gave it out
There wasn't any quarter
All the pieces fell apart.
