Lyrics:

I see your face cloud over like a little girl's
Your eyes have lost their shine
You whisper something softly I'm not 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? Listen to me, girl

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Can't we try to understand
That it's love we're fightin' for? (Oh-oh)
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
Love you so much, baby
That it tears me up inside

I hear you on the telephone with God knows who
Spillin' out your heart for free
Everyone needs someone they can talk to
Girl, that someone should be me
So many times I tried to tell you
You just turned away (How did I know?)
My life is changing so fast now
Leaves me lonely and afraid (Don't be afraid)

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Can't we try to understand
That it's love we're fightin' for? (Oh-oh)
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
Love you so much, baby
That it tears me up inside

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

Can't we try just a little bit harder?
Can't we give just a little bit more?
Can't we try to understand
That it's love we're fightin' for? (Oh-oh)
Can't we try just a little more passion?
Can't we try just a little less pride?
Love you so much, baby
That it tears me up inside (It tears me up inside)

Can't we try just a little bit harder? (Can't we try?)
Can't we give just a little bit more? (A little bit more)
Can't we try to understand
That it's love we're fightin' for? (Love we're fightin' for)
Can't we try just a little more passion? (Baby, can't we try now?)
Can't we try just a little less pride? (A little less pride)
Love you so much, baby
That it tears me up inside (It tears me up inside)
Can't we try just a little bit harder? (Can't we try?)
Can't we give just a little bit more? (A little bit more)
Can't we try to understand
That it's love we're fightin' for? (Love we're fightin' for)
