Im gonna give my love to you
Ill show you what good love will do
It all comes down to what you give
Try a little tenderness
Itll open your heart up like a flower
Tenderness has got the power
It all comes down to the way you live
Try a little tenderness
When youre down
When youre weary
When all hope is gone
And you cant go on
When youre down
Done with fighting
Try a little tenderness
Everybodys always in such a rush
Everybodys caught up in the crush
When all we really need
Is a human touch
Try a little tenderness
When youre down
When youre weary
When all hope is gone
And you cant go on
When youre down
Done with fighting
Try a little tenderness
Im gonna a give my love to you
And show you what your love will do
If youre ready to give up on the human heart
Try a little tenderness
Im just tryin to make it thru everyday
And leave a little lovin along the way
Why does evrything have to be so damn hard
Try a little tenderness
When youre down
When youre weary
When all hope is gone
And you cant go on
When youre down
Done with fighting
Try a little tenderness
