Billy Joel Leave A Tender Moment Alone
Even though I'm in loveSometimes I get so afraidI'll say something so wrong Just to have something to sayI know the moment isn't right To tell the girl a comical lineTo keep the conversation light I guess I'm just frightened out of my mindBut if that's how I feel Then it's the best feeling I've even knownIt's undeniably real Leave a tender moment aloneYes I know I'm in loveBut just when I ought to relax I put my foot in my mouthCause I'm just avoiding the facts If the girl gets too closeIf I need some room to escapeWhen the moment arose I'd tell her it's all a mistakeBut that's not how I feel No that's not the woman I've knownShe's undeniably real So leave a tender moment aloneBut it's not only me Breaking down when the tension gets highJust when I'm in a serious mood She is suddenly quiet and shyLeave a tender momentLeave it alone I know the moment isn't rightTo hold my emotions inside To change the attitude tonightI've run out of places to hide And if that's how I feelThen it's the best feeling I've even known It's undeniably realLeave a tender moment alone You got to leave a tender moment aloneLeave a tender momentLeave it alone You've got to leave a tender momentLeave a tender moment alone
