I'll be your number when you need to talk
Daytime, nighttime, anytime at all
I'll be your ticket when you need a ride
We'll journey together right through your life

I've tried to tell you, listen here what I say
No one will keep you or love you this way
And I've tried, and I've tried
I'll be your shelter when the cold rain beats down

Nothing will hurt you when I am around
I'll be your engine, your boat or your plane
Just tell me we're leaving and we're on our way
I've tried to tell you, listen here what I say
No one will love you or keep you this way

And I've tried. I've tried to tell you
Listen here what I say
No one will love you or keep you this way
And I've tried, and I've tried. Man, how I've tried
And I've tried. Oh, how I've tried
