Tenderness

Aaahh, aaah, aah, oh!
Aaahh, aaah, aah, oh!

I don't know where to start or where to stop
My luck's like a button, I can't stop pushing it
My head feels light but I'm still in the dark
Seems like without tenderness there's something missing

Tenderness
Where is the Tenderness?
Where is it?

I don't know where I am but I know I don't 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 you're here but
Next night you're not, it always leaves me searching for a little

Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
Where is the Tenderness?

Whistling in the graveyard, calling up your girlfriend
Just trying to make her understand, you're squeezing the telephone like it was her hand
No questions, so many questions, she's going to catch you out boy
It all seems so underhand, now she's the only thing that ever made you feel like a man, man
Madman, madman

Where is the Tenderness?
A little Tenderness
Where is it?
Tenderness
A little 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 you're here but
Next night you're not, it always leaves me searching for a little

Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
Where is the Tenderness?

When you're sick to death of second best, pet
Why should the morning always find you unimpressed?
Is your love like a button, you can't stop pushing it?
Oh, this all night longing can be such a long time

Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
