I’m not asking you to take me back
Bend my ears and break my back
You go on and find you someone else
I can cry on my own
I don’t need no help
but there is one little favour
I’m asking before we’re through
One kind word
One kind word
Is all I need from you

I’m not asking for apologies
I know you’ve got excuses like a dog has fleas
I’m not trying to make you understand
I ain’t betting no more on a losing hand
But there is something you owe me
And it’s long overdue
One kind word
One kind word
Is all I need from you

Is it asking too much?
Is it more than your pride will allow?
You don’t even have to mean it
You been mean enough anyhow

I’m not trying to make you change your mind
Rediscover the love that you left behind
But I sure would appreciate some kind of sign
That the whole damn thing wasn’t just a waste of time
Don’t need the insults and put-downs
You gave me more than a few
One kind word
One kind word
Is all I need from you

Can you work it into your schedule?
Do you think the it can be arranged?
I’d like to have something more to say about you
Than “What a shame, what a shame, what a shame”

Go on and tell yourself you done what’s right
I’ve got no trouble getting to sleep at night
You go your way and I’ll go mine
You’ll taste your own bitter medicine on down the line
Here is the last thing I’ll ever ask you to do:
One kind word
One kind word
One kind word
One kind word
Is all I need from you
