No Matter How Hard We Try

Where is the man 
Who made her want to hold his hand 
She’d never even heard the band 
But she knew she liked the song 
He disappeared into some other kind of guy 
Drove himself so deep inside 
Couldn’t tell her what was wrong

If she had wings 
She would have flown him to heaven 
Offered his heart to the sky 
Sometimes we can’t find a way to make it better 
No matter how hard we try

She was an angel lying on the bathroom floor 
She couldn’t take it anymore 
It was just too hard to breathe 
He was the fallen hero banging on the door 
Yeah, he hit it til his fists were sore 
Couldn’t bring himself to leave

If he had wings 
He would have flown her to heaven 
Offered her heart to the sky 
Sometimes we can’t find a way to make it better 
No matter how hard 
No matter how hard we try

We hold on tight 
We fight, we fight 
We lose the light 
Sometimes we have to give 
All of ourselves 
We give, we give 
Until we slip from sight

If they had wings they would have flown on up together 
Offered their hearts to the sky 
Sometimes we can’t find a way to make it better 
No matter how hard 
No matter how hard 
No matter how hard we try
