She tried to show me how to love
|
I bit her lips and bruised her arms
|
No I hadn't learned Tenderness
|
She asked "what does love mean to you?"
|
I grabbed her hair and pulled her down
|
I looked in her eyes and I laughed
|
The love I feel is hard and fast
|
It's for a face and for one night
|
I don't need to own anyone
|
|
She said, she said all your women burn in your flame
|
But as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge
|
|
She laughed and said "You'll go thru hell
|
You'll live in lonely rooms unknown
|
And watch for my lost Tenderness"
|
I went from her to someone else and someone else
|
No, I couldn't be satisfied
|
|
She said, she said all your women burn in your flame
|
And as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge
|
|
I wish that I could find her now
|
My love is soft, my love is warm
|
I'd take her to bed tenderly
|
Yes I'd take her to bed tenderly
|
