Tenderly, tenderly Please take my breath from me Into the fountains and up from the grave Tearfully, joyfully Burn what is left of me I don't want these burdens that handsomely weigh You'll be my guest And I'll let you stay Leave me the check I'll pay with the rest of my life Twist the knife Carefully, quietly You took what's young from me I didn't deserve it, I gave it away Cowardly, thoughtlessly You walk away from me And I'll tear my heart out to save you the day You'll be my guest And I'll let you stay Leave me the check I'll pay with the rest of my life Twist the knife Oh! Tenderly, tenderly Please take my breath from me Into the fountains and up from the grave |
