You know the way I feel about ya, I don't wanna spend my life without ya

So isn't it time for you to show me, I bet that you wanna get to know me now



You're never gonna make a Romeo, I don't want you to be

You could find a way to let me know, I wanna know you care about me



Chorus:

Try a little tenderness, has it ever crossed your mind?

Try a little tenderness, I think you'll be surprised with what you'll find

Gotta let togetherness prove without a chance you're really mine

Try a little tenderness sometimes



All of your moves were made to get me, you got no further since you met me

You still won't treat me like I want you to

Every night's like a one-night-stand with you



It it really worth the waitin'? Well I still don't know

If you think of dedication, here's a record on the radio show



chorus



Every time I see you smilin', there could be a silver lining

Don't let this chance be wasted, make me feel appreciated

Show you're thinkin' of me all the time



chorus



Try a little tenderness, try a little tenderness

Try a little tenderness sometimes
