	I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear						I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear

11	We all need a little tenderness, how can love survive						We all need a little tenderness	11
12	In                         such a graceless age						How can love survive in such a graceless age	12

14	And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness						that lead to happiness	14
15	Are the very things we kill, I guess						They're the very things we kill, I guess	15
	Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms						Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
16	And the work they put between us, you know it doesn't keep us warm						And the work they put between us,	16
