In the hustle of a day We're all inclined to miss The little things that mean so much Like a hug or a smile or a kiss When a woman loves a man, He's a hero in her eyes The hero he will always be If he just realize She may be weary Women do got weary Wearing the same shabby dress While she's weary Try a little tenderness She may be waiting Just anticipating Things she may never possess While she's without them Try a little tenderness It's not just sentimental She has her grief and her care And a word that soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness It's all so very easy Try a little tenderness Try a little tenderness
