tender hands

• (bkz: chris de burgh) (bkz: flying colours)
  
  oh how, at the journey's end,
  i lie in the heat of the night,
  feeling the heartache, wondering why,
  i want a friend,
  i want a friend to lay down beside me,
  i want a friend,
  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 you hear me this time,
  i see the storm grow,
  there's 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,
  my tender hands will hold you
  through the night;
  
  i want your tender hands,
  you have tender hands,
  i want those tender hands,
  tender hands...
