Lyrics
A Soft Answer
R. Hammond
C 2000 HamFam Music, ASCAP
LOOKING BACK, OVER TIME, I AGREE, YOU WERE RIGHT.
WHAT A WASTE, OF ENERGY, WHAT A SHAME, & I'M TO BLAME.
****************************
(CHORUS): A SOFT ANSWER, WON'T CAUSE ANGER,
BUT I USED HARSH WORDS, * I KNOW, THAT YOU'VE BEEN HURT.
******************************
LOOKING ON, TRUTHFULLY, I WANNA CHANGE, WHAT I SEE.
I WANNA WAIT, & HEAR YOU OUT, YOUR EVERY THOUGHT, IS OF VALUE.
(CHORUS)
LOOKING BACK, OVER TIME, I AGREE, YOU WERE RIGHT.
I WANNA WAIT, & HEAR YOU OUT, YOUR EVERY THOUGHT, IS OF VALUE.
(CHORUS)
(Alt Chorus line)
* THE LORD KNOWS, WHAT I DESERVE.
