My lover looks me in the eye   Says baby you failed me   If your love is really true   Why don't I feel set free   Aw bail me out baby   I'm not meant for this prision cell   So I fought for him   How could I know he brought it on himself   And now I'd like to say    Final score aside   That even though I failed in your eyes   I tried   I tried   So I bailed him out with all my cash   I bailed him out with my love   Distracted all the prision guards   With stone trumpet from up above   I even pulled the warden over to one side   I said leave for him to foreswear my penance    For his crime   And now I'd like to say   Final score aside   Even though I failed in your eyes   I tried   I tried it   And with all the pain in this world   That my love could go to change   How could I fail at freeing only one man from his own cage   And though it hurts to think of him   Cursing me for one thing   And it hurts to think of me   No longer believing   But in the end they told me   Sorry he isn't good enough   And it finally occured to me   Why his life is so damn rough   And now I'd like to say   Final score aside   That even though I failed in your eyes   I know I hurt you maybe alot   Oh blame me til the day that I die   But I tried   I tried   Baby I tried   Yeah   I tried I tried I tried
