The air is cooling and the sun's going down

The day's been grueling in this dusty old town

My body's aching for what you do to me



Tenderly tenderly

Tenderly tenderly



The words are easy when the language is love

You know exactly what I'm thinking of

My heart is hungry for what you do to me



Tenderly tenderly

Tenderly tenderly



I've had lovers go up in flames

Been with others who've had no names

God I've waited patiently

For someone who really touches me



I feel your fingers and their touch is like fire

Sensations linger then they turn to desire

My body's aching for what you do to me



Tenderly tenderly

Tenderly tenderly
