Luke Leighfield - If I Try

To Rate
It’s not a challenge anymore
But it creeps up on me every night
With the liquor and the boredom and the weeks away from home
And who says it matters anyway?

As it places its hands over my eyes
It comes as no surprise
That I give in to the slightest pressure
I let you down every time

And as I chalk up another year
The odds for a perfect love get slimmer and slimmer
And no-one’s placing any bets now
And I hate to take their lead
But I’m cripplеd with fear
Every day that love’s away from this placе

As hope starts to leave my grasp
I remind myself to get it back
‘Cause otherwise there’s no point in living
I’m confused when times are hard
And I can’t keep from looking back
But you could be everything I need

If I try
