Lyrics The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers

Everyday I Try

Hey!

Everyday I try not to lie

But I lie, and you're the reason why

Everyday I try not to see

That you're my favorite female company

Everyday I try to regret

The way that I feel, But I can't do it yet

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try and everyday I fail

Everyday I try to respect

All the things that all night I reject

Everyday I kid myself on

That today's the day when I'll be strong

Everyday the truth closes in

And I know for sure that I can never win

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try and everyday I fail

Well the people all agree

That the truth will set you free

And they tell you to love it

Till the truth has them in chains

And a lie would cause less pain

Then you know you can shove it

Shove it

Everyday I try to regret

The way that I feel, But I can't do it yet

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try not to lie

Everyday I try and everyday I fail

Everyday I try and everyday I fail
