"Trying Times" lyrics

Trying Times

All I ever did was love you
Is this a price I pay?
I tried so hard to hate you
But love gets in the way

To think that you don't need me
Drives me right out of my mind
Oh, yes
These are trying times

Trying times
These are trying times
It don't matter how I try
I can't get you off of my mind

And knowing you don't love me
Keeps tearing me up inside
Oh, yes
These are trying times

Sometimes I get bitter
At the mention of your name
But then your sweet, sweet memory
Erases all the pain

Don't you have a conscience?
How can you be so unkind?
Oh, yes
These are trying times

Trying times
These are trying times
It don't matter how I try
I can't get you off of my mind

Knowing you don't love me
Keeps tearing me up inside
Oh, yes
These are trying times

Oh, yes
These are trying times
