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 know what i mean 'til you ask me
i know what i want to do with you
i know what i mean 'til you ask me
coming off when you know what i want to do
and now the only thing for us
is quit the questions, finish the fuss
don't give up babe and don't despair
just give the truth and then
when it comes to this, when it come to this
Chorus: you give me too much tenderness
d'you know what you feel when i ask you
d'you know what you want to do with me
d'you know what you see when i show you
you make everything seem unseemly
and now the only thing to do
is carry the cuckold (shoo-bee-doo-bee-doo)
he give you to much sympathy and too much love
and then when it comes to this, when it comes to this
Chorus: you give me too much tenderness
i know where i've been 'til you ask me
it's getting confusing in my head
i know what i've seen 'til you ask me
(or am i blind like somebody once said ?)
and now the only place to go
is make for the mountains, head for the snow
he gives you everything he could
he gives you his heart and soul
but then when it comes to this, when it comes to this
Chorus: you give me too much tenderness
