I'm Still Trying

Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh My mind it sings of the memories How they tug and cling I lay listening I could touch my past Feel the heavy air Hear the branches scratch I lay looking back I remember when I used to drive right over I remember when you used to pull me closer I was traded for a cigarette In a bed you shared with an older friend I remember all the years I yearned for closure I'm still trying Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh And I wish I knew Why I barely call Why I'm short with you I shut my eyes and kid you grew So I've learned with time All the bonds you build either live or die And I've come to carve away my pride 'Cause I remember when you used to call me brother I remember when you used to climb on my shoulders We would lay out in the sun to dry Have a heart to heart from time to time I remember all the grief we gave our mother Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh
