[Verse 1]
Tell me, do you want my love?
Tell me what you're thinkin' of
I've been waitin' 'round so long

[Refrain]
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

[Verse 2]
I hope you're not tryin' to make a fool of me
'Cause if you are I know there's goin' to be
Some tears fallin' and they won't be mine

[Refrain]
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

[Bridge]
Some people may want many loves, my friend
But we both know what happens to them in the end

[Verse 3]
So please listen to these words of mine
And let me know that I'm not wastin' my time
I'm sure that we could get on very fine

[Refrain]
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

[Outro]
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
