Lyrics

Even though I'm in love Sometimes, I get so afraid I'll say something so wrong Just to have something to say I know the moment isn't right To tell the girl a comical line To keep the conversation light I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind But if that's how I feel Then, it's the best feeling I've ever known It's undeniably real Leave a tender moment alone Yes, I know I'm in love But just when I ought to relax I put my foot in my mouth 'Cause I'm just avoiding the facts If the girl gets too close If I need some room to escape When the moment arose I'd tell her, it's all a mistake But that's not how I feel No, that's not the woman I've known She's undeniably real So, leave a tender moment alone But it's not only me Breaking down when the tension gets high Just when I'm in a serious mood She is suddenly quiet and shy Hmm, mmm- Leave a tender moment alone (leave a tender moment) Leave it alone (leave a tender moment alone) I know the moment isn't right To hold my emotions inside To change the attitude tonight I've run out of places to hide And if that's how I feel Then, it's the best feeling I've even known It's undeniably real Oh, leave a tender moment alone Ahh-ahh, ahh-ah (leave a tender moment alone) Leave a tender moment alone, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Leave a tender moment alone Leave a tender moment Leave it alone, oh, oh, oh, oh Leave a tender moment alone You got to leave a tender moment alone Leave a tender moment alone Leave a tender moment alone
