I tried

It's all so much and God knows I'm trying
If my heart had eyes God knows it would be crying
Nothing I can do will make this better
I wish I could turn back time so I never met her
Then the pain would all be gone and we could be free
Nothing ever to stand between you and me
But as it is I have this past
And at times I don't feel like I can last
I can't be there for you
Even though I want to
And it splits my heart in two
And screams in pain over you
All I can do is write these lines
To make up for all this lost time
I know I cannot be there to kiss your lips
Or look in your eyes or caress your hips
I can't hold your hand or hug you tight
I can't do these things, try as I might
Tomorrow you're another year older
Tomorrow the temperature will be colder
Tomorrow will be another day alone
Tomorrow I'll try again to atone
But again I'll fail and sigh
Even though I know the reasons why
And life till continue on its way
Till it gives birth to a new day
When I enter your arms to never leave
That day so grand that it's hard to believe
That I'll be with you till the sun sets never to rise again
Fighting this losing game until we finally win
And the fault will fall away from my soul
And we'll achieve that lifelong goal
Of time together and no time apart
Of a new life together to start
And these words will be but a distant memory
Of when we thought those things would never be
And we'll laugh and smile as we read over these words
Of how we thought forever was too long and the thought was absurd
But this day will come when it'll only be you and I
Because through all this, God knows I've tried
