Tender Game lyrics

Remember

not so long ago,

an angel

whose name I didn't know,

she saw me,

caressed me with her eyes,

attraction

that could not be denied.

I stood there,

so taken by her charms,

hoping to spend

an evening in her arms.

I was drifting

when she called out my name.

Then she whispered,

"Tonight let's play

the tender game of love."

The tender game of love,

it's what I'm dreaming of.

Girl, the tender game of love,

let's play.

Emotion

burning like a fire,

we walked together

through the doorway of desire.

Such passion,

I ran right back for more.

So perfect,

like it happened all before.

She trembled

as I burned her with my touch.

She held me,

she needed me so much.

So guilty

and we both will take the blame

when we met that night

and played the tender game of love.

The tender game of love,

it's what I'm dreaming of.

Girl, the tender game of love,

let's play.  

I gave my heart

so easily.

There was nothing I could hide, no, no.

I'll do it all again

for her to be, oh, be with me, 

by my side,

by my side.

Please stay by my side, girl,

by my side.

Let's play.

The tender game of love,

it's what I'm dreaming of.

Girl, the tender game of love,

let's play.  

The tender game of love,

it's what I'm dreaming of.

Girl, the tender game of love,

let's play.
