I have tried so hard to understand What you mean with all that strange talk You should know what it makes me feel When I hear you say those words Oh, can't you see the life is not so bad at all And there's no need for all that pain CHORUS Embrace the things you've got And keep them in your heart Even if it takes a sacrifice And if it should go wrong Face it as it comes It only takes a little sacrifice I hear so many different stories Every time I want to know Why you live with false impressions And why you let your feelings show You should know, it's time to realize Let's turn around and face the world CHORUS A little, a little A little sacrifice A little, a little A little sacrifice
