Tonight again you'll be holding another tenderly

Whispering soft sweet words you once spoke to me

While I'm here a lonely living old memories

Of the precious love you once gave to me

Then softly and tenderly tears touch my cheeks

Invisible tears no one ever sees

Softly and tenderly my heart still beats

For only you and all the love you gave to me

[ piano ]

It seems to me that you're reaching for a world that don't exist

Searching for new lips that you've never kissed

When I think I find your conscience has suddenly gone blind

I find I wonder who if you were ever really mine

Then softly and tenderly...

For only you and all the love you gave to me
