And I just keep on trying, but I don't know what for

Only makes me love you more
Bridge
(Guitar 1)
A Em
So I sit here divided, just talking to myself
G
Was it something that I did

When a voice from behind me, that was fighting back tears

Sat right down beside me, and whispered right in my ear
G
Tonight I'm dying to tell you

Only makes me love you more

Lyrics:
You call to me
And I fall at your feet
How could anyone ask for more
And our time apart
Like knives in my heart
How could anyone ask for more
But if there’s a pill
To help me forget
God knows I haven’t found it yet
But I’m dying to
God I’m trying to
But trying not to love you
Only goes so far
Trying not to need you
It’s tearing me apart
Can’t see the silver lining
I’m down here on the floor
I just keep on trying
I don’t know what for
Cause trying not to love you
Only makes me love you more
Only makes me love you more
And this kind of pain
Only time takes away
That’s why it’s harder to let you go
And nothing I can do
Without thinking of you
That’s why it’s harder to let you go
But if there’s a pill
To help me forget
God knows I haven’t found it yet
But I’m dying to
God I’m trying to
Cause trying not to love you
Only goes so far
Trying not to need you
It’s tearing me apart
Can’t see the silver lining
I’m down here on the floor
I just keep on trying
I don’t know what for
Cause trying not to love you
Only makes me love you more
So I sit here divided
Just stuck to myself
Was it something that I did
Was there somebody else
When a voice from behind me
That was fighting back tears
Sat down right beside me
Whispered right in my ear
So I came by here to tell you
Cause trying not to love you
Only went so far
Trying not to need you
It’s tearing me apart
Now I see the silver lining
What we're fighting for
If we just keep on trying
We can be much more
Cause trying not to love you
Trying not love you
Only makes me love you more
Only makes me love you more
