try a little tenderness...

I may get weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
But to one who's weary
Try a little tenderness

i may be waiting
Just anticipating
All of the things
i may never possess
But while i'm waiting
Try a little tenderness

I may be sentimental
But i've had my griefs
And my cares
And just a good word
Soft and gentle
Makes it, makes it
So much easier to bear

i might forget it
Oh but don't let me forget it
Love's got a whole
A whole happiness
'cause it's so easy
Try a little tenderness
