[Verse 1] You hold the door when someone's hands are full You let a sharp reply fall quiet on the floor A little room to breathe, a little time to hear Can change the shape of what we're building here [Pre-Chorus] No grand design begins above our heads It starts with how we meet each other instead [Chorus] Make a little more room, make a little more room Let the next kind word come through Step aside, lift someone up That's how a better world is made by us Make a little more room, make a little more room Keep a place at the table, too Every small act carries through That's how a better world is made by us [Verse 2] You learn the name the new kid says aloud You share the map when someone's turned around We don't have to see the whole way through Just take the next kind step we can do [Bridge] Pause, look again, let the hard edge bend A neighbor is a neighbor before a friend [Final Chorus] Make a little more room, make a little more room Let the next kind word come through Step aside, lift someone up That's how a better world is made by us Make a little more room, make a little more room Keep a place at the table, too Every small act carries through That's how a better world is made by us [Outro] Make a little more room
