From the very first hello until the very last goodbye
From here to there and everything between
All I ever did was try my best to keep you satisfied
And all you ever did was make a fool of me
I tried every way I knew to give you everything I had
And all I ever did was try to treat you right
Still the best that I could do was never good enough for you
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
My old friends they tried to warn me but I paid them all no mind
When I see them now we don't have much to say
For you took everything I had and left me nothing but behind
Feeling like some old forgotten yesterday
I tried every way I knew to give you everything I had
And all I ever did was try to treat you right
Still the best that I could do was never good enough for you
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
