Give It Time To Be Tender
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I feel the hunger you feel in your touch burning my body and soul
And it's frightening just wanting somebody so much so close to losing control
But darling don't make me surrender too soon I'm so afraid of the fall
Please give it time to be tender and pretend it won't hurt at all
Slowly be gentle each step of the way I've never been loved before
Let me believe that you won't turn away after you've opened the door
But darling don't make me...
Please give it time to be tender and pretend it won't hurt at all
