Try A Little Harder - Jackie DeShannon

To keep a love from leavin'

Try a little harder

Forget the time you’re spendin'

And try a little harder, a little harder, a little harder

Reach out, lend me your mind

Let me fill it with thoughts so gentle and kind

Take a ride on my Ferris wheel

And never stop until you find what’s real

You said you like to play

With people that won’t try to make you stay

And go places you’ve never been

You’re just followin' the mood you’re in

Now every day is good to you

So try a little harder

I know there’s somethin' left to use

So try a little harder, a little harder, a little harder

Flyin' into the wind

I know the rainbow is still my friend

There’s magic in make-believe

Now won’t you color a day for me?

I looked inside my coat

And found there was just a little note

Sayin' that you had left the key

But you never tell where you’ll be

When there’s no one to run to

You try a little harder

Before you say you are through

Just try a little harder, a little harder, a little harder

You got to try

Try a little harder

Don’t you cry

Try a little harder

Before you die

You try a little harder

And you know why

You try a little harder

Come on and try

Try a little harder

Don’t you cry

Try a little harder

You know why

Try a little harder

You got to try

Try a little harder

Come on try

Try a little harder

You got to try

Try a little harder
