Never Worked So Hard

I wanted to be everything
The sunshine in your life
The darkness in your night
It wasn’t to be anything
In the end I lost the fight
I just couldn’t get it right
But oh, did I try
Never worked so hard in my life
One day I’ll try again
This feeling has to end
These troubles that surround me
Are surely gonna drown me
Every night I’m awake
All the things I could have said
Doin' dances in my head
Wondering why it might take
Is there nothing I can do
To make a difference to you
But oh, did I try
Never worked so hard in my life
One day I’ll try again
This feeling has to end
These troubles that surround me
Are surely gonna drown me
It shouldn’t be this tough to let you go
But you’ll never know
All this color fades to black
I’m still dreamin' that you’re back
Though I wake up every time
But you never try
Never worked a day in your life
When everything we had
It started to go bad
You didn’t even look behind you
Didn’t know where I could find you
Oh, did I try
Never worked so hard in my life
One day I’ll try again
This feeling has to end
These troubles that surround me
Are surely gonna drown me
