tenderness
I dont know when to start or when to stop
My lucks like a button
I cant stop pushing it
My head feels light
But Im still in the dark
Seems like without tenderness theres something missing
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is it?
I dont know where
I am but I know
I dont like it
I open my mouth and out pops something spiteful
Words are so cheap, but they can turn out expensive
Words like conviction can turn into a sentence
I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night youre here,
But next night youre not
It always leaves me searching for a little
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?
Whistling in the graveyard
Calling up your girlfriend
Just trying to make her understand
Youre squeezing the telephone like it was her hand
No question (so many questions)
Shes going to catch you out boy
It all seems so underhand
Now shes the only thing that ever made you feel like a man, man
Madman, madman
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
Where is it?
I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night youre here,
But next night youre not
It alwaysleaves me searching for a little
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?
Im just sick to death of second best, pet
Why should the morning always find you unimpressed?
Is your love like a button?
You cant stop pushing it?
Oh this all night longing can be such a long time
