I was alone   My love was an endless night   You came to me   Lover you made it right   I understand sometimes   It may not show   So I'm taking the time   To let you know      Chorus:   I'm aware of your love   ( repeat 7 times )         A heavy load   Upon me every day   But with your smile   You've taken it all away   I've never been a man   Of many words   But can't you see now   I'm trying to say         Chorus:         You are the inspiration   Of every word I say   I swear sometimes I know   You try to give me death to pay   The way you hold me in the night   You make me feel all right   This is the only way   To tell you I'm trying   Baby I'm trying, I'm trying   I'm trying, I'm trying   ( repeat 2 times )
