Tender Hands

Tender Hands - Chris De Burgh

Oh how at the journeys end

I lie in the heat of the night

Feeling the heartache wondering why

I want a friend now

I want a friend to lay down beside me

I want a friend now

I want her now

Someone who knows what i mean

When i say that i need

Tender hands to hold me

I need tender hands tonight

Will you lay them on my shoulders

Will you lay them on my eyes

And i need tender hands to take me

All the way to paradise

And then when it's over

I need tender hands

To hold me through the night

Touch me with your velvet mouth

I will give all the love that i have

Under the moonlight reaching your heart

Where are you now where are you now

Come out of the shadows

Where are you now i want you now

You know that i cannot always be strong

And i need

Tender hands to hold me

I need tender hands tonight

Will you lay them on my shoulders

Will you lay them on my eyes

And i need tender hands to take me

All the way to paradise

And then when it's over

I need tender hands

To hold me through the night

I am only a voice in a city of noise

Can hear me time

I see the storm grow

Theres a light in the desert tonight

And i need tender hands

Give me tender hands

Will you lay them on my shoulders

Oh give me

Tender hands to take me

All the way to paradise

And then when it's over

I have tender hands

To hold you through the night darling

Tender hands will hold you

Through the night

I want your tender hands

You have tender hands

I want those tender hands
