I thought I was good enough
I gave you all I had for nothing
I threw all of my cards on the floor
And I showed you my hand and I lost it all

I tried not to disappoint you
But you had me at my lowest point, yeah
The only way was up and I saw
What we had was no longer worth fighting for

But you know
I tried my hardest
I tried my best to be the man you always wanted
And I
I know we've fallen
I know we've gotten away from where we were before
But baby now I'm better

I thought we were good enough
I told all of my friends about you
Put everything I had on the table
Unable to see that you never cared

And all I ever wanted to know was
Could I ever love you enough? 'Cause
There's no way that I can explain
The feeling you left me with that day

But you know
I tried my hardest
I tried my best to be the man you always wanted
And I
I know we've fallen
I know we've gotten away from where we were before

But baby now I'm better
I've got myself together
Can't you see I'm better?
I tried my best to say
But my words just aren't enough to explain

But baby now I'm better
I've got myself together
Can't you see I'm better?
I tried my best to say
But my words just aren't enough to explain

But oh
I tried my hardest
I tried my best to be the man you always wanted
