Melanie Fiona - I Tried Lyrics
I tried being good
But it never works
But if I follow the rules
There was no way I'd get hurt
But every time I let my guard down,
I could give until you're back down,
Run me dry until I tap out, ooh oh
I could really use some sleep,
But you still won't let me rest
Must've fallen way too deep
Now I'm drowning it's so hopeless
No one said it would be easy,
Love isn't for the weak
But even in my strongest,
I tried being good
But it never worked
See, I was playing with fire
When I should just let it burn
What's the use of being good?
In love when there's is no peace
Hey, heyy
Might as well be the bad girl
Maybe then I'd find relief
Oooohhhh
I tried, I tried
Baby, you know that I tried
I don't know why I gave you my best
Yes, I did, yes, I did
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
Oh, I tried

Melanie Fiona I Tried Comments
Speaking my life on this ❤️🔥❤️
Wow! Hearing this for the 1st time! August 2019!
I’m in love with song
This song is fucking amazing and it needs more ears to hear it. This is the most powerful song I've heard thus far.
Please. Do it
Song on repeat. I just got out of an abusive relationship. Melanie Fiona ALWAYS helps me through my ruff times on countless songs of hers. This one is the one that is helping me at the moment. love you Melanie you are WAY too underrated and we need more artist like you hands down. Thank you so much for being there for me without even knowing.
This is how I feel but this song helps me keep going and keep making music and following my dreams 🙌🏿💪🏿🙏🏿🤘🏾🥰💋🤗
I love her.
She reminds me of Amy winehouse
My new jam, wish I found this when it first come out
The amount of views and likes doesn't come close to the value of her music.. She is one of my favorite artist and not many people even heard of her... She is beyond underrated... Love this song... So hurtful and powerful... Keep doing your thing Melanie!!!
Still love this song 🤷🏻😍💕
Still Listening In 2018 ❤️❤️
Yassss, I love it.

BUT Even at my strongest your the one I can't defeat....mmm WOW
EVERY time I let my guard down...I LET my HEART DOWN. 💯💙 #TRUESTORY
That line is so, so powerful on so many levels...Melanie is not only such a beautiful artist with INCREDIBLE depth, but also an amazingly transparent individual. Her posts on motherhood are all so moving.
I mess with this song heavy she outdid herself with this one. This is true R&B soul right here I live for it
I'm 13 years old😂😂
Thank you for this song and video, it gave me chills and touched my heart deeply. Thank you for continuing to be who you are and setting the bar no matter how many people notice or acknowledge your gift. You are seen, heard, and notice. Continue to make magic and be the amazing beautiful kindred spirited artist that you are.
She's so amazing I just heard this and i felt it all within me, it touched me deep . So much meaning she put into this
Wow this touched my soul lowkey
just like many others, she's so underrated :(
Thank you for making this video! I felt it to the core
That soulful voice is just...wow.
i love all her slow jams an this song sounds good by her
The Brown sexy version of Amy. RIP dear Winehouse.
Does she still sing? I haven't heard anything new from her or an album release?
+Suzy S Yes she does still sing. Her new album Next Train will be out in 2018. She was off so long because she had a baby LOL.
Thank you, cause I rmr she became pregnant right when I started loving her music and was so sad, lol. Super happy she's coming back. :D
i love you. you're so deep. people are sleep on you.
I tried being good
But it never works
But if I follow the rules
There was no way I'd get hurt
But every time I let my guard down,
I just let my heart down, ooh
I could give until you're back down,
Run me dry until I tap out, ooh oh
I could really use some sleep,
But you still won't let me rest
Must've fallen way too deep
Now I'm drowning it's so hopeless
No one said it would be easy,
Love isn't for the weak
But even in my strongest,
You're the one I can't defeat, ooh oh
I tried being good
But it never worked
See, I was playing with fire
When I should just let it burn
What's the use of being good?
In love when there's is no peace
Hey, heyy
Might as well be the bad girl
Maybe then I'd find relief
Oooohhhh
I tried, I tried
Baby, you know that I tried
I don't know why I gave you my best
Yes, I did, yes, I did
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
Oh, I tried

This is me right now.
Still under rated. you'd believe r n b is dead, it's very much alive. I hate that to find decent artists you really have to dig.

Melanie Fiona is a true Queen man if I was in the industry are a man of power I will stop at nothing to make her my woman LOL straight tunnel vision
truly gifted! absolutely one of THE BEST--->why she's not hyped more, i'll never know (?)
Everything about this so perfect
Start to bring awareness to the idiots repeatedly going for the abusive type
I agree with cauzin diem below, always have loved your voice and the pulse of your Island roots in your R&B. Saw you up close in Nashville around 2011, and hope you return soon! Photos are in my FB from that show. Love.
True excellence in every since of the word. Love her music
wow i am in tears melonie you are true inspration
girl know she can sing. at firsti thought the video was about just domestic voilence but covered various topics.
I felt likewise...
why is she so slept on???
love isn't for the weak ❤
the greatest female talent around, wish i could beat up the industry execs and radio jocks for not knowing what music is, this woman is incredible, honey if you ever need someone knocked out holla atcha boy, i got you
this song is powerful
I like it
congrats Melanie love you
beautiful
Look Love Is U As I See U
I tried being good
But it never works
But if I follow the rules
There was no way I'd get hurt
But every time I let my guard down,
I just let my heart down, ooh

Run me dry until I tap out, ooh oh
I could really use some sleep,
But you still won't let me rest
Must've fallen way too deep
Now I'm drowning it's so hopeless
No one said it would be easy,
Love isn't for the weak

I don't know why I gave you my best
Yes, I did, yes, I did
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
Oh, I tried
songs forever*
I have been waiting for her to make some more song
YOU GONNA LOSE FANS FUCKING AROUND WITH SHIT THAT IS OUTSIDE YOUR WATERS.
I really have no words to explain the ignorance that you just posted.
+Adam Dille lol
AS A POTENTIAL FAN YOU FUCKED THIS ONE UP! YOU ARE NO AMY WINEHOUSE, AND YOU NEED TO STICK TO WHAT YOU KNOW... THIS IS THE ONLY MESSAGE I GOT FOR YOU!
It baffles me how ignorant you are. If you can't understand the reason for her singing this song and the meaning behind it, then you shouldn't be a "potential fan" much less a Melanie fan
Powerful! Beautiful! Thank you!
Brought me to tears.
Love this... Real music, message, and all around artist! I could put on a a Melanie mix and let it ride no skips. #RealMusiclives
Bruuuuh where was I? This is why I love Melanie!
much respect to this woman she is still a true artist at heart no matter what hype is going on with other singers she remains true to the art form.
thumbs up
Beautifully written!!!
The backgrounds at the end are giving me 100% Lauryn Hill. Amazing.
