Found on Hearts.

Eyes

Holdin' back the tears

That they've held for years

How can I tell you?

I don't want to make you cry

Why should I even try?

Why should I even try?

Days

Where'd you go so fast

Fin'lly lost at last

How can I tell you?

I don't want to let you down

Why should I even try?

Why should I even try?

How can I tell you?

I don't want to let you down

Why should I even try?

Why should I even try?
