I'll Try

I can't promise you I will always

be everything you need.

I can't promise you that I will

never cry. 

I can only promise that I will 

 love you, 

and that I will always try.

I can't change what happened 

yesterday, or make it go away.

I can't promise perfection for

tomorrow, but I will 

do my best, every day.

You know I can' t be perfect

and I don't expect perfection from you

we must accept our flaws in each

other, it's the only fair thing to do.

No, I won't promise anything

I don't believe that I can do

and I ask from my heart

the same promise from you.

So when the storms rage in my heart

and you can't understand why I cry

just love me, be patient,

and understand I can only try.

No, I am not perfect,

but then neither are you,

and if this is to last then

then we both must promise

I Will Try.
