I always try, but am never good enough
You look at me and my heart says jump
I wanna be what you want, but I'm not
You give me hope that the world is good
And I want to be everything that you would
Why can't I get this right
Days go by and I get high
And I can't get you off of my mind
No matter how bad I try
But when we get together
Things aren't always so much better sometimes
Well, only sometimes
I always had high hopes for us
Don't tell me you didn't notice
I know that we could be worth it
You know that we both deserve it
So now I'll pick up the pieces
You told me take it or leave it
I guess thats what you wants
Just tell me I should move on
Now look at us in this hotel room
We fight, make up and our lives resumes
Your arms would hold me so close, they've grown
You make this time worth spending
We both have good intentions
I love the thought of this love, but still these
Days go by and I get high
And I can't get you off of my mind
No matter how bad I try
But when we get together
Things aren't always so much better sometimes
Well, only sometimes
I always had high hopes for us
Don't tell me you didn't notice
I know that we could be worth it
You know that we both deserve it
Now I know
What its like to hold
Pieces of my heart
In my hands so cold
You could tune this out
As you let me go
You could turn this down
Or let the stereo blow
I always had high hopes for us
Don't tell me you didn't notice
I know that we could be worth it
You know that we both deserve it
