Between the darkness on the street And the houses filling up with light Between the stillness in my heart And the roar of the approaching night Somebody's calling after somebody Somebody turns the corner out of sight Looking for somebody Somewhere in the night
Tender is the night When you hold your baby tight Tender are the motions, tender is the night
Between a life that we expected And the way it's always been I can't walk back in again After the way we fight When just outside there are people laughing Living lives we used to lead Chasing down the love they need Somewhere in the night
Tender is the night And the benediction of the neon light Tender are the hunters, tender is the night
You're gonna want me tonight When you're ready to surrender Forget about who's right When you're ready to remember It's another world at night When you're ready to be tender
Tender, tender tender...
And in the hard light of an angry sun No one remembers what was said or done Tender are the words they choose You win, I win, we lose
Tender Tender is the night Tender The benediction of the neon light Tender Tender are the hunters Tender is the night When they hold each other tight Tender Tender are the undercover Tender The stranger and the secret lover Tender Tender are the motions Tender is the night When you hold your baby tight
