Tenderness Lyrics
She tried to show me how to love,
I bit her lips and bruised her arms, no I hadn't learned tenderness.
She asked , 'what does love mean to you?'
I grabbed her hair and pulled her down, and I looked in her eyes and I laughed
The love I feel is hard and fast,
It's for a face and for a night, I don't need to own anyone.
She said she said all your women burn in your flame
But as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge.
She laughed and said, 'You'll go thru hell,
You'll live in lonely rooms unknown and watch for my lost tenderness.'
I went from her to someone else, and someone else,
And someone else, no, I couldn't be satisfied.
She said, she said all your women burn in your flame
But as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge.
I wish that I could find her now, my love is soft, my love is warm,
I'd take her to bed tenderly.
Yes, I'd take her to bed tenderly.
Oh, I'd take her to bed tenderly.
as the saying goes, how can this not have any comments?? i really cant even sum it up at the moment, but it seems so self explanatory to me that it doenst need it.
those times when u have love, but u dont want it, and come to realize years later what is was you gave up, and how you miss it, and how you love it now, and how its just to late.....
well it's almost one of their hits, but the comment above mine, i don't get it.
maybe it's that you can't express love or understand the anguish or despair and will allways be left alone. so you cherish and remember.
Like many songs we enjoy listening to but have creepy lyrics, one wonders if it might encourage macho sexual assault by cowardly men like the Beatles\' "Run for Your Life." I\'m not for stifling expression but today I cannot listen to such songs with the enthusiasm I had back in that era.
