Oh baby I found the nerve to try again Some broken hearts, give time will mend Will you be gentle if I surrender all to you, to you
Please understand that I got to be sure The lessons I've learned I can't ignore Will you be gentle if I surrender all to you, to you
[CHORUS] Take good care of me 'Cause my heart's a tender thing, oh yeah Take good care of me 'Cause this heart has known much pain And could never have the loving again So take good care of me, of me
Don't get me wrong 'cause I really care A shadow of doubt has always been there
Please reassure me Hold me against my fears away, my fears away Something tells me it's right this time It took a little while but I made up my mind Please reassure me That we'll be together come what may, come what may
Take good care of me 'Cause my heart's a tender thing, oh yeah Take good care of me 'Cause this heart has known much pain And could never have the loving again So take good care of me
I know forever's never been promised to anyone So don't forget me forever I'll take what I can get 'Cause baby you're the best thing That ever happened to me yet, oh oh oh
Woah baby So if it can't be forever I'll take what I can get 'Cause baby you're the best thing That ever happened to me yet, oh oh oh
Take good care of me 'Cause my heart's a tender thing, oh yeah Take good care of me 'Cause this heart has known much pain And could never have the loving again So take good care of me,
