Eric Roberson – Try Love Lyrics

R&B

Some say it's old school, some say it uncool
For us to be in tune and express the way we feel for another
I don't understand that brother (brother, brother)

I mean if you like this girl for example
And she gave you ample opportunities to let her know
A fool would let his ego lock up his heart and not let it show

Excuse me sir can you spare some change (please)
Change up the way, you play these games (please)
It would be cool if you wake up, more than alone 'cause
You treated grown women like damn, listen now

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Show love, give love, try love
Even if the one you love is yourself

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Try love, show love, give love
Give someone a hug, even if it's yourself

I'm talkin' about love, she's talkin' about lust
She's talkin' about past, I'm talkin' about us
I guess I need to pay attention
Yo mommy, I'm finally learning about the art of listening

Past the warning signs a million times
Either blind or illiterate or a little bit of both
Either way, I would stay
Way past the expiration date on the low (Man)

Miss can you spare some change (please)
Change the way you look at me strangely (please)
I mean guys that only judge, outside of beauty
I ask for name, not for your booty

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Show love, give love, try love
Even if the one you love is yourself

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Try love, show love, give love
Give someone a hug, even if it's yourself

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Try love, give love, show love
Even if the one you love is yourself

Open up your arms and hold them as wide as you can
Show love, try love, give love
Hug somebody even if it's yourself

Now listen
I'm not just talking about the person by your side
When was the last time you called your Grandma
To see if she's alright

Maybe took the time to see the person right on the street
Might need a helping hand (Helping hand, yeah)
And understand, I'm not preaching, but I ain't lying either
Come on, come on bring them horns back on in, yeah

Woo

Show love, show love, try love
Even if the one you love is yourself
Try Love, show love, give love
Hug somebody

When was the last time you hugged yourself, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
