[Verse 1] You pause beside the words you almost say And let my unfinished sentence stay No need to solve the weather in my chest Just sit with me until it settles west [Pre-Chorus] A little patience changes what we see Your point of view can widen mine for free [Chorus] Take the time, let the small things matter Hear the hurt beneath the hurried chatter Every hand can soften what we carry Kindness starts when we stop and see Take the time, let the whole world listen One kind choice can shift the way we’re living You and I, with room to understand Can make a gentler world by hand [Verse 2] You learn the names I hold behind my smile I learn the weight you’ve carried for a while We don’t have to agree on every turn We only have to care enough to learn [Pre-Chorus] A little patience changes what we see Your point of view can widen mine for free [Chorus] Take the time, let the small things matter Hear the hurt beneath the hurried chatter Every hand can soften what we carry Kindness starts when we stop and see Take the time, let the whole world listen One kind choice can shift the way we’re living You and I, with room to understand Can make a gentler world by hand [Outro] One kind choice, then another We get better at seeing each other
