Try a Little Harder

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're all 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
