Turn it down so I can’t hear it

Turn it out so I can’t see it

It’s just useless to ignore

We’re going down, you don’t feel it

Turn it round, you don’t mean it and

I can’t stand it anymore



When the whole world sighs

And it’s making you so deflated



I've got a life

Though it refuses to shine

I've got a life it aint over (it aint over)

I've got a way

It's the only things that’s mine

All I'm asking for is tenderness

A little tenderness



Ooo it's a cruel place

You never asked to be here

Nobody cares and no one’s gonna help you now (hold on)

It's dog eat dog the human race

The only thing they'll do is hate you (hate you)



Such a crime to be unkind

Turn your cheek pretend you're blind



I've got a life

Though it refuses to shine

I've got a life it aint over

It aint over

I've got a way

It's the only thing that's mine

All I’m asking for is tenderness

Tenderness



I've got a life

Though it refuses to shine

I've got a life it aint over

It aint over

I've got a way

It's the only thing that's mine

All I’m asking for is tenderness



Be strong now baby

Gotta be strong now baby

Gotta be strong!
