Make a Little Room for You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hello, welcome to Athens Point, Rhode Island, where we meet. To all the faculty and clients, Let’s make respect our beat. We can ask before assuming, Choose our words with care; A kinder way to say it Can make room for everyone there. [Pre-Chorus] If a question’s on your mind, Let’s bring it into view; Speak with patience, speak with kindness, Leave some space for every view. [Chorus] Let’s talk it through, corazón, With respect in every tone. If we listen, if we ask, No one has to feel alone. English when it helps us all, Spanish when there’s reason, too; Let’s be thoughtful with our words And make a little room for you. [Verse 2] If you’re part of this community, Help us keep the welcome wide; When a language helps someone, Let understanding be our guide. And in casual conversation, Think of who is standing near; A small act of consideration Makes the message kind and clear. [Pre-Chorus] If a question’s on your mind, Let’s bring it into view; Speak with patience, speak with kindness, Leave some space for every view. [Chorus] Let’s talk it through, corazón, With respect in every tone. If we listen, if we ask, No one has to feel alone. English when it helps us all, Spanish when there’s reason, too; Let’s be thoughtful with our words And make a little room for you. [Bridge] No blame, no raised voices, Just a chance to understand; Different words, one table, Many hearts, one helping hand. Ask me what would help you; I’ll do the same for you. [Final Chorus] Let’s talk it through, corazón, With respect in every tone. If we listen, if we ask, No one has to feel alone. English when it helps us all, Spanish when there’s reason, too; Let’s be thoughtful with our words And make a little room for you. [Outro] Athens Point, we’re here together, With care in all we say; A question asked with kindness Can bring us closer every day.
