Tender Hands lyrics

Oh how, at the journey's end, I lie in the heat of the night

Feeling the heartache, wondering why

I want a friend, I want a friend to lay down beside me

I want a friend, I want her now

Someone who knows what I mean when I say

That I need tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight

Will you lay them on my shoulders, will you lay them on my eyes?

And I need tender hands to take me all the way to paradise

And then, when it's over, I need tender hands to hold me

through the night

Touch me with your velvet mouth, I will give all the love that I have

Under the moonlight, reaching your heart

Where are you now, where are you now, come out of the shadows

Where are you now, I want you now

You know that I cannot always be strong

And I need tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight

Will you lay them on my shoulders, will you lay them on my eyes?

And I need tender hands to take me all the way to paradise

And then, when it's over, I need tender hands to hold me

through the night

I am only a voice in a city of noise, can you hear me this time?

I see the storm grow, there's a light in the desert tonight

And I need tender hands, give me tender hands

Will you lay them on my shoulders?

Oh, give me tender hands to take me all the way to paradise

And then, when it's over, I have tender hands to hold you

through the night

Darling, my tender hands will hold you through the night

I want your tender hands, you have tender hands

I want those tender hands, tender hands
