Even though I'm in love
|
Sometimes I get so afraid
|
I'll say something so wrong
|
Just to have something to say
|
|
I know the moment isn't right
|
To tell the girl a comical line
|
To keep the conversation light
|
I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind
|
But if that's how I feel
|
Then it's the best feeling I've ever known
|
It's undeniably real
|
Leave a tender moment alone
|
|
Yes I know I'm in love
|
But just when I ought to relax
|
I put my foot in my mouth
|
Cause I'm just avoiding the facts
|
|
If the girl gets too close
|
If I need some room to escape
|
When the moment arose
|
I'd tell her it's all a mistake
|
|
But that's not how I feel
|
No that's not the woman I've known
|
She's undeniably real
|
So leave a tender moment alone
|
|
But it's not only me
|
Breaking down when the tension gets high
|
Just when I'm in a serious mood
|
She is suddenly quite and shy
|
|
Leave a tender moment alone
|
Leave it alone
|
|
I know the moment isn't right
|
To hold my emotions inside
|
To change the attitude tonight
|
I've run out of places to hide
|
And if that's how I feel
|
Then it's the best feeling I've ever known
|
It's undeniably real
|
Leave a tender moment alone
|
You got to leave a tender moment alone
|
Leave a tender moment alone
|
Leave it alone
|
You got to leave a tender moment alone
|
Leave a tender moment alone
|

Leave A Tender Moment Alone
