Better Than You Found Them

[Verse 1]
You held the door when both our hands were full,
No rulebook there, no promise to repay.
You saw me dragging through a crowded morning,
And made a little room to change my day.

[Pre-Chorus]
Not for praise, not to be right,
Just because you saw me there.

[Chorus]
Be kind because you want to,
Give because you can,
Make the world a softer place
By reaching out a hand.
No gold star, no reason due—
Just leave folks better than you found them.

[Verse 2]
Let someone finish, even when you disagree,
Pass the last peach, ask what they need.
A small bit of patience can loosen a hard day;
A little more room lets a heart find its way.

[Breakdown]
Not because you're told.
Not because it's owed.

[Final Chorus]
Be kind because you want to,
Give because you can,
Make the world a softer place
By reaching out a hand.
No gold star, no reason due—
Just leave folks better than you found them.
Better than you found them.
