Sean McCarthy Band - Tryin' Lyrics

Well here we are, sittin' cross the table
Goin' over who is gettin' what
Ten years in, you'd think we'd be able
To work things out and not be givin' up
One thing right we did was have that boy of ours
Who looks like you, sometimes acts like me
Well I pray each night, he won't carry long time scars
And grows up to be who he wants to be

Tryin' to make you happy, when you don't wanna be
Is like tryin' to steer a hurricane out in the middle of the sea
Now my heart is cold and callus, if you wanna know the truth
Tryin' to make you happy, was a hard thing to do

Now I know the road, you had wasn't easy
And your past, you could not let it be
It haunts you still, and inside you are freezin'
You're locked inside and only you hold the key
Now I'm Irish, so I guess I am that stubborn
To think, I could ever bring down that wall
I was hopin' that there was somethin'
All along, there was nothin' there at all

Tryin' to make you happy, when you don't wanna be
Is like tryin' to steer a hurricane out in the middle of the sea
Now my heart is cold and callus, if you wanna know the truth
Tryin' to make you happy, was a hard thing to do
Tryin' to make you happy, I could never do
