(Nayan/christopher bednar) Across the room you gave a glance Your soft, sweet eyes put me in a trance And since that day you've cherished me So to my heart you'll always hold the key Tenderly, is the way to handle me Oh so tenderly, how your touch can set me free You baby, you're the only one It's the little things you've given me The time we spend so preciously The special way you act when I'm around Your gentle kiss brings me up when I'm down Tenderly, is the way to handle me Oh so tenderly, how your touch can set me free You baby, you're the only one When we're all alone it feels so right Making love to you all through the night The softness in your touch it shows me how you care I want you so much more with each day that we share Tenderly, is the way to handle me Oh so tenderly, how your touch can set me free You baby, you're the only one Tenderly, is the way to handle me Oh so tenderly, only you can set me free Baby, tenderly, is the way to handle me You, baby, you're the only one
