A Little Tenderness Lyrics by Sheena Easton

You Could Have Been with Me

1981

[Verse 1]
You know the way I feel about you
Don't wanna spend my life without you
So isn't it time for you to show me
How badly you wanna get to know me now
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You're never gonna make a Romeo
I don't want you to be
If you can 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 at what you find
Gotta let togetherness - prove without a doubt you're really mine
Try a little tenderness - somеtime
[Verse 2]
All of your moves werе 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
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Is it really worth the waiting?
Well I still don't know
If you think that dedication is a record on a radio-show?
[Chorus]
Try a little tenderness - has it ever crossed your mind?
Try a little tenderness - I think you'll be surprised at what you find
Gotta let togetherness - prove without a doubt you're really mine
Try a little tenderness - sometime
[Bridge]
Ev'ry time I see you smiling there could be a silver lining
Don't let this chance be wasted
Make me feel appreciated
Show you're thinking of me all the time, oh!
[Outro]
Try a little tenderness - has it ever crossed your mind?
Try a little tenderness - I think you'll be surprised at what you find
Gotta let togetherness - prove without a doubt you're really mine
Try a little tenderness
Try a little tenderness
Try a little tenderness - sometime
