Emilie Autumn - Try My Best (Poem) lyrics

I’m gonna try my best to love him Don’t know why I want him so Yeah I’ll try and keep him by my side I won’t ever let him go Oh I’ve learned too much in my poor life To laugh at humor I can’t see It’s sad I know that I can’t show My love, but I won’t set him free So I’m gonna try my best to love him Even if it takes all night long Even if this feeling hurts me I've heard pain can make you strong And I know that I’m not his girl Really never thought I’d care But to see him in your arms That’s the one thing I can’t bear If you said I had no heart Well I hardly think I’d cry ‘Cause there ain’t one thing you know ‘bout me That I’d bother to deny And it’s not that I don’t find him sweet I know too well his voice, his touch His eyes, and often underneath I wonder that I try this much Still it would be a shameful lie To say I love this boy, this man But I am fond and he is fine So in the end perhaps I can I agree this child deserves A better friend and lover too But I’m gonna try my best to love him Just to keep him far from you
