[Verse 1] You held the door when both our hands were full, No rulebook there, no promise to repay. You saw me dragging through a crowded morning, And made a little room to change my day. [Pre-Chorus] Not for praise, not to be right, Just because you saw me there. [Chorus] Be kind because you want to, Give because you can, Make the world a softer place By reaching out a hand. No gold star, no reason due— Just leave folks better than you found them. [Verse 2] Let someone finish, even when you disagree, Pass the last peach, ask what they need. A small bit of patience can loosen a hard day; A little more room lets a heart find its way. [Breakdown] Not because you're told. Not because it's owed. [Final Chorus] Be kind because you want to, Give because you can, Make the world a softer place By reaching out a hand. No gold star, no reason due— Just leave folks better than you found them. Better than you found them.
