Try A Little Tenderness

Nina Simone

Try a little tenderness

Try a little tenderness

You know, yes, you know she's waiting

Just anticipating

The things she may never possess

What's she without them

Try try a little tenderness



Oh it's not just sentimental

She has her greaves and cares

And the word sweet and gentle

Makes it easier makes it easier to bear



You won't regret it

We may not forget it

Love, love, love is their whole happiness

It's oh so easy it's oh so easy

So try a little tenderness
