I feel this tenderness inside
for every tramp who can't behave
who wanders round without a goal
who's no man's master no man's slave

I feel this tenderness inside
for he who cannot hold his tongue
who's not afraid to rant and rave
who's old and bold and wise and young

I feel this tenderness inside
for those who keep in touch with dreams
and if by any chance
their dreams come true
they laugh although too loud it seems

I feel this tenderness inside
for every woman every man
for every soul who ever tried
to love it all and withstand

I feel this tenderness inside
for every woman every man
for every soul who ever tried
to love it all and not withstand
