Lyrics:

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 are the one for me
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
Yes it's now baby
Oh so tenderly, how your touch can set me free
Oh baby now that I need it
Oh so tenderly,is the way to handle me
Oh so tenderly, how your touch can set me free
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
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
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tenderly is the way)
Say tenderly is the way is the way it got to be now
(Tenderly is the way)
Is the way you touch my heart now set me free now
(Tenderly is the way)
And it tends to bring me up when am down
Oh slow down, slow down
Tenderly, is the way to handle me(oh slow down)
Oh so tenderly,how your touch can set me free
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, tenderly, is the way to handle me
You, baby, you're the only one
