If I could give a little more
Take a little less
Show a little more love
And tenderness
Well I wanna learn
I gotta try
To be a better man
Before I die
I want all of my children
My friends and family
To know I'm a whole lot better
Then I used to be
I've spent most of my life
Thinkin about myself
Time to start thinkin about
Everybody else
If I could give a little more
Take a little less
Show a little more love
And tenderness
It ain't as hard
As you think it is
It don't take that much at all
Just take a little bit
Too many years
Have passed me by
And the ones I love the most
Are the ones that cry
I can't take back
All I've done
But I can prove it ain't too late
For anyone
I've spent most of my life
Thinkin about myself
Time to start thinkin about
Everybody else
If I could give a little more
Take a little less
Show a little more love
And tenderness
It ain't as hard
As you think it is
It don't take that much at all
Just take a little bit
They say I'm just a chunk of coal
A diamond in the rough
They say I've got a heart of gold
Just needs some shining up
Sometimes I want to throw in the towel
When it gets to be too rough
But everything would be a whole lot better
If I could give a little more
Take a little less
Show a little more love
And tenderness
It ain't as hard
As you think it is
It don't take that much at all
If I could give a little more
Take a little less
Show a little more love
And tenderness
It ain't as hard
As you think it is
It don't take that much at all
Just takes a little bit
