Tenderly Songtext
von Duke Ellington and His Orchestra

The evening breeze
Caressed the trees
Tenderly

The trembling trees
Embraced the breeze
Tenderly

Then you and I
Came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we

The shore was kissed
By sea and mist
Tenderly


I can′t forget
How two hearts met
Breathlessly

Your arms opened wide
And closed me inside
You took my lips
You took my love
So tenderly

Your arms opened wide
And closed me inside
You took my lips
You took my love
So tenderly
