Song Description

This song is about love and lost... The melody has a happy, bouncy, vibe, yet the lyrics are rather sad. There is a melancholy undertone throughout, but in a good way... Like when 2 old friends are reminiscing about childhood.

Lyrics

I realize, I let you down too many times
You said goodbye
Now it's so hard for me
to face another day
Life just isn't the same

(chorus)
Oh, I've worn my heart on my sleeve
And it's bleeding
You might be something I need
Oh, I'm pleading
Why can't you just try?
Give me a reason to smile

Used to be, I'd wave hello to everybody on the street
Now I just turn my head and gaze the other way
The sun has disappeared
These clouds are here to stay
Life just isn't the same

I've worn my heart on my sleeve
And it's bleeding
You might be something I need
Oh, I'm pleading
Why can't you just try?
Give me a reason to smile

Since you went away
Life just isn't the same

I've worn my heart on my sleeve
And it's bleeding
You might be something I need
Oh, I'm pleading
Why can't you just try?
Oh, why can't you just try?
Oh, why can't you just try?
Give me a reason to smile
