Only Tender Love

Way out there in the wilderness

Of love and pain

Under the gentle arches we rode

The silver streets

Couldn't see a difference between gold or

Wooden cross

Could never see where we're falling

Came in to love

Then hounded by love

Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up

Chased inside the walls you tried to breach

Sent crashing to your knees

Only tender love

Understood the need you need with

Understood the time it took

To take you where nothing ever was

Never was there once nothing

And everything once was

Not dead but still and ready to be born anew

Looking back now it all

Seems so clear

Like staring so long unseeing for someone to light inside a

Darkened room

Then try your tender love

Push you back till there's nowhere left

Nowhere to feel nothing anymore

Nothing that will comfort you more

More than tender love

Understands the need you need with

Understand the time it takes to get home and have a love again

More than tender love

Understands the need you need with

Understand the time it takes

To get home and have a love

Then try your tender love

Push it till there's nothing left

Nowhere to feel nothing anymore

Nothing that will comfort you more

Then hounded by love

Hounded by the very thing you dreamed up

Chased inside the walls you tried to breach

Sent crashing to your knees

Then only tender love

Understood the need you need with

Understood the time it took

To take you where nothing ever was
