Try A Little Tenderness

Try A Little Tenderness - Chris Connor

In the hustle of today

We're all inclined to miss

Little things that mean so much

A word a smile or a kiss

When a woman loves a man

He's a hero in her eyes

And a hero he will always be

If he'll just realize

That she may be weary

Women do get weary

Wearing the same shabby dress

And when she's weary

Try a little tenderness

She maybe waiting

Just anticipating

Things she may never possess

While she's without them

Try a little tenderness

It's not just sentimental

She has her grief and care

But one word that's soft and gentle

Makes it easier to bear

You won't regret it

Women don't forget it

Love is their whole happiness

And it's all so easy

Try a little tenderness

And it's all so easy

Try a little tenderness
