 JACKSON BROWNE - Tender Is The Night Lyrics

[Russell Kunkel, Danny Kortchmar & Jackson Browne]

Between the darkness on the street
And the houses filling up with light
Between the stillness in my heart
And the roar of the approaching night
Somebody's calling after somebody
Somebody turns the corner out of sight
Looking for somebody
Somewhere in the night

p10m11232i1819145cmm15.
Tender is the night
When you hold your baby tight
Tender are the motions, tender is the night

p10m11232i1819145cmm15.
Between a life that we expected
And the way it's always been
I can't walk back in again
After the way we fight
When just outside there are people laughing
Living lives we used to lead
Chasing down the love they need
Somewhere in the night

p10m11232i1819145cmm15.
Tender is the night
And the benediction of the neon light
Tender are the hunters, tender is the night

p10m11232i1819145cmm15.
You're gonna want me tonight
When you're ready to surrender
Forget about who's right
When you're ready to remember
It's another world at night
When you're ready to be tender

Tender, tender tender

And in the hard light of an angry sun
No one remembers what was said or done
Tender are the words they choose
You win, I win, we lose

Tender
Tender is the night
Tender
The benediction of the neon light
Tender
Tender are the hunters
Tender is the night
When they hold each other tight
Tender
Tender are the undercover
Tender
The stranger and the secret lover
Tender
Tender are the motions
Tender is the night
When you hold your baby tight

Tender, tender tender
