Testo Tryin' To Love You

You check every box and then some
The kind that every one of my friends want
That mamas love and daddies trust
With their hold world ridin' in a pickup
Yeah you're everything I pray for
The type they say it's so worth the wait for
Old-soul eyes, that tell no lies
So I, I don't know why
Tryin' to love you
Is like tryin' to grow a rose in a city sidewalk
As bad as I want to let my heart let go damn it just won't
It ain't your fault it's hard to start a fire
When you can't make one spark fly
The trouble with tryin' to love you is I
I shouldn't have to try
(Shouldn't have to try)

As hard as it is to say it
I'm sure it's even harder to take it
You deserve more
Than a half-open door
I don't wanna waste your time
Tryin' to love you
Is like tryin' to grow a rose in a city sidewalk
As bad as I want to let my heart let go damn it just won't
It ain't your fault it's hard to start a fire
When you can't make one spark fly
The trouble with tryin' to love you is I
I shouldn't have to try
(Shouldn't have to try)

I shouldn't have to try
(Shouldn't have to try. Shouldn't have to try)

Wish I could put a finger on it
Feels like something's missing don't it
Falling's supposed to feel like flyin'
Ain't supposed to feel like trying

To love you
(Shouldn't have to try. Shouldn't have to try)

Tryin' to love you
Is like tryin' to grow a rose in a city sidewalk
As bad as I want to let my heart let go damn it just won't
It ain't your fault it's hard to start a fire
When you can't make one spark fly
The trouble with tryin' to love you is I
I shouldn't have to try
(Shouldn't have to try, have to try)
I shouldn't have to try
(Shouldn't have to try, have to try)
Oh, yeah
