[John legend]

Puttin' on a brave face, I wipe the tears away with no trace

I'm ok, mister grey

I'm not as strong as you think

There's a hurt behind my smiling face

I say, "I'm ok".

[John legend & paloma faith]

Every saint has a past

Every sinner has a future

And I feel your pain

We all hurt the same.

And I'll be there to hold you

There's nothing that I won't do

'cause we all need a little kindness

All this cruelty is so mindless

I promise I'll be tender

So darling just surrender

I see through all your pretending

So let go 'cause I can take it on.

I'll take it on (listen, baby)

Yeah, I'll be gentle.

[Paloma faith]

I see you putting on a brave face

I guess you need to learn to have faith

I'll stay and wait

I shake it off and have a few drinks

And forget about everything they say

I'll be your escape.

[John legend & paloma faith]

Every saint has a past

Every sinner has a future

And I feel your pain

We all hurt the same.

And I'll be there to hold you

There's nothing that I won't do

'cause we all need a little kindness

All this cruelty is so mindless

I promise I'll be tender

So darling just surrender

I see through all your pretending

'cause our love is never ending.

Oh, so hold my hand

'cause I got nowhere else to turn

Please be gentle and be kind

Lend me your ear, lend me your time

Just let it out

It takes a real man to let me see him cry

I'm here to dry your eyes

I see your're hurt, don't cry tonight.

And I'll be there to hold you

There's nothing that I won't do

'cause we all need a little kindness

All this cruelty is so mindless.

And I'll be there to hold you

There's nothing that I won't do

'cause we all need a little kindness

All this cruelty is so mindless

I promise I'll be tender

So darling just surrender

I see through all your pretending

So let go 'cause I can take it on.

And I'll be there to hold you

There's nothing that I won't do

'cause we all need a little kindness

All this cruelty is so mindless

I promise I'll be tender

So darling just surrender

I see through all your pretending

So let go 'cause I can take it on.

I'll take it on (oh, take it on)

I'll take it on

Oh, baby

And I'll be gentle

Oh, I'll be gentle.
