Tenderness

Hush baby, don't cry
Just try to remember the time
When all your pitfalls and fears became mine
And when we fall apart
Just one thing takes me back to the start

Tenderness, put my heart to rest
Your tenderness hits me to the bone
Tenderness, when my head's a mess
Your tenderness keeps me coming home

Hush baby, don't cry
Well this rings in my head all the time
And still I tend to forget your words
When I'm the swan in my full dive
Just one thing keeps me alive

Tenderness, put my heart to rest
Your tenderness hits me to the bone
Tenderness, when my head's a mess
Your tenderness keeps me coming home

And so it seems to me
To all of us here, the answer is clear
That you need a little less stress
And some more tenderness

Tenderness, put my heart to rest
Your tenderness hits me to the bone
Tenderness, when my head's a mess
Your tenderness keeps me coming home

Oh, your tenderness, it keeps me coming home
Your tenderness hits me to the bone
Oh, your tenderness, it put my heart to rest
Oh, oh, little tenderness
