Just a little bit harder
So I can love, love, love him
I tell myself (Try)
Well, I'm gonna try, yeah
Just a little bit harder
So I won't lose, lose, lose him
To nobody else (Try)
Hey! Well, I don't care
How long it's going to take you now
But if it's a dream I don't want
No, I don't really want it
If it's a dream I don't want nobody to wake me
(Wake, wake, wake)

Yeah, I'm going to try, yeah
Just a little bit harder
So I can give, give, give, give him
Every bit of my soul (Try)
Yeah, I'm going to try, yeah
Just a little bit harder
So I can show, show, show him
Love with no control (Try)
Hey! I've waited so long for someone so fine
I ain't gonna lose my chance
No, I don't want to lose it
Ain't gonna lose my chance
To make you mine, all mine (Mine, all mine)
All right, get it! Yeah
