Lyrics for I've Been Trying

I've been trying Lord knows that I've been trying To understand why Can I be your only man? Now you said you love me So sincerely That I believed that you love me An' yet I can't understand why Can I be your only man? Day after day You treat me any old way I wanna go but my heart says, "No" Acting so strange But my love still remains So keep on trying boy She's gonna change Day after day You treat me any old way I wanna go but my heart says, "No" Acting so strange Yet my love still remains It says keep on trying boy She's gonna change Now, I've been trying Lord knows how I've been trying But I can't understand why Can I be your only man? I just keep on trying Just keep on trying You gotta keep on trying Gotta keep on trying Keep on trying Keep on trying Just keep on trying
