Tenderly

 

Tenderly my friend -

 that's how it will be,

 this relationship of ours -

 between you and me.

 

Tenderly I will lend -

 this shoulder of mine,

 in case you have need of it -

 it is here all the time.

 

Tenderly I will speak -

 kind words to you for sure,

 because that's how friendships last,

 and forever endure.

 

Tenderly I will cherish -

 your words in my heart,

 to listen to your pain -

 from beginning to start.

 

Tenderly I will ask -

 God's grace from above,

 to embraces us as friends -

 committed to His love.

 

Tenderly I will seek -

 the beautiful things in life,

 and give them all to you -

 to remove all your strife.

 

Tenderly I will keep -

 every feeling that you share,

 so you will know for certain -

 I am a friend who really cares!
