Never Tried
Shakaya Lyrics

One night I looked into the sky
Simone is reminiscing about a time when she looked up at the sky and thought about the person she loved.

Sweet thoughts of you just passed me by
Although Simone was thinking about the person she loved, she didn't dwell on it for too long.

Stars twinkling right up into space
Simone was captivated by the beauty of the stars and the endless expanse of space.

I see your face
In the midst of her thoughts, Simone imagined the face of the person she loved.

I'm lookin' deeper into your eyes
Naomi is trying to understand the true feelings of the person she loves by studying their eyes.

But all I see just makes me wanna cry
Despite her efforts, Naomi is upset by what she sees in her loved one's eyes.

And nothing stops the hurt inside
Naomi is feeling emotional pain that she can't seem to shake off.

Coz what I feel is just a pain for goodbye
Naomi realizes that the reason for her pain is the impending end of her relationship.

Now you're saying that I never tried
Naomi's loved one is blaming her for the relationship ending, and she feels unfairly accused.

I never tried to be lonely
The chorus is saying that the singer didn't want to be lonely, but felt ignored by their loved one.

You never gave me a chance
The singer feels like their loved one didn't give them a fair opportunity to be in a fulfilling relationship.

All I wanted was to be romanced
The singer just wanted to be shown love and affection by their partner.

One night I looked into your heart
Simone is trying to understand her loved one's true feelings by looking into their heart metaphorically.

There was an empty space where I thought I would be
Simone was disappointed to find that there was no room for her in her loved one's heart.

And now I don't know where to start
Simone is at a loss as to how to proceed in her relationship, given this new information.

I'm used to you and me
Simone has become accustomed to the idea of being in a relationship with her loved one.

I guess love has a fee
Simone is realizing that love is not just a simple emotion, but comes with its own set of challenges and complications.

Why do we never see the signs
Naomi is reflecting on how she and her loved one missed the warning signs that their relationship was in trouble.

It seemed so real this love but why was I
Naomi is wondering why she was fooled by the seemingly genuine love that her and her partner shared.

So blinded by your lies
Naomi now realizes that her loved one was lying to her and she was unable to see the truth.

Now I just don't have the time
Naomi is moving on from the relationship and has no time to waste on someone who lied to her and took advantage of her.

Chorus
The chorus repeats the idea that the singer never wanted to be alone and was seeking affection from their partner, but felt ignored and unloved.
