lyrics

TENDERNESS Words & Music by P.PASCOE.

THIS PICTURE'S BLUE THE PAINTED SKY
REFLECTS MY MOOD PLEASE REMIND ME WHY

IF LOVE IS TRUE WHY’S IT BLIND?
OR IS IT ALL THE HURTS WE CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND?

LONELINESS IS ONLY THIS
WHEN YOU’RE THE OWNER OF AN UNCLAIMED KISS
REMEMBER TENDERNESS WAITS FOR EVERYONE

WE'RE INCLINED TO LOSE OUR WAY
AS WE TRY TO FIND A WAY TO SAY
WHATS DEEP INSIDE, THE STRONGEST MEMORIES WILL STAY

THEN WE RETURN WE’VE BEEN THERE BEFORE
LOVE’S ROULETTE WHEEL HAS NO FAVOURITES

WE TAKE THE CHANCE WHO KEEPS SCORE?
TAKE A SOULFUL DANCE AGAIN TO FIND US

WAITING FOR OUR BIGGEST WISH TO COME TRUE
CATCHING THAT ELUSIVE FISH
REMEMBER TENDERNESS WAITS FOR EVERYONE

CARRY US AWAY TODAY AS WE FIND A WAY TO SAY
WHATS DEEP INSIDE, THE STRONGEST MEMORIES WILL STAY

AND THE DREAMS WE HOLD
AND THE TRUTHS WE’RE TOLD WILL LEAD TO HAPPINESS
AND THE CREAM WILL RISE TO TOP
SWEET SURPRISE IT’S HAPPINESS
