I've been trying for a long time To make you understand Your lack of faith in me Almost ruined me as a man You thought this goal in life I could never fill But you didn't see through My power of will CHORUS: You couldn't see When I told you What's right for me I tried to show you I'm sure you couldn't know The tough times that I had I even lost my love Almost drove me mad But now this life I seek Is coming true These things I did myself No help to you CHORUS I've been trying for a long time To make you understand Your lack of faith in me Almost ruined me as a man You thought this goal in life I could never fill But you didn't see through My power of will
