Can't We Try (Duet with Collage) - Original Radio Version

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?
 Can't we try just a little more passion?
 Can't we try just a little less pride?
 I 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?
 Can't we try just a little more passion?
 Can't we try just a little less pride?
 I 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?
 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?
