It's time I tried


Sorrow, I'm told, comes and goes
but that ain't what I say.
'Cause for me, the misery
never goes away.
It's been like this ever since you told me goodbye,
and I've refused to lose these blues 
but it's time I tried.
It's time I tried to mend my broken heart.
Dry my eyes, and make a brand new start.
I have to heal this hurt I feel,
and get you off my mind.
It might be hard but it's time I tried.
All I do is long for you
when I turn out the lights.
'Cause nothing's left but loneliness to hold onto at night.
I toss and turn while my heart yearns for love I've been denied.
I can't replace your warm embrace but it's time I tried.
