I see your face cloud over like a little girl's
And your eyes have lost their shine
You whisper something softly
I'm no meant to hear
Baby tell me what's on your mind

I don't care what people say
about the two of us from different worlds
I love you so much that it hurts inside
Are you listening, please listen to me, girl

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Cna't we try to understand
That it's love we're fighting for?
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
I love you so much baby that it tears me up inside...

I hear you on the telephone with God knows who
Spilling out your heart for free
Everyone has someone they can talk to
Girl that someone should be me

So many times I've tried to tell you
You just truned away
(How did I know)
My life is changing so fast now
It leaves me lonely and afraid...
(Don't be afraid, no...)

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Cna't we try to understand
That it's love we're fighting for?
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
I love you so much baby that it tears me up inside...

Don't let our love fade away
No matter what people say
I need you more and more each day

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Cna't we try to understand
That it's love we're fighting for?
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
I love you so much baby that it tears me up inside...
