I Tried To Write a Song

I tried to write a song, But the words just were not enough. I tried to hum the tune, But nothing sounds right this afternoon. I tried to find a melody That could rival your voice I once knew. I tried to find a single note Like those that used to sing from your throat. I tried to write the right words That will bring you back to me. I tried to compose some kind of art To mimic how you once gently held my heart. But after all I cried, I can still only say, "I tried."
