(love Is) The Tender Trap Lyrics

Bing Crosby (love Is) The Tender Trap

Ya see a pair of laughing eyes

And suddenly you're sighing sighs.

You're thinkin' nothin's wrong

You string along boy then snap!

Those eyes those sighs -

They're part of the tender trap.



You're hand in hand beneath the trees

And soon there's music in the breeze.

You're actin' kind of smug

Until your heart just goes whap!

Those trees that breeze -

They're part of the tender trap.



Some starry night

When her kisses make you tingle

She'll hold you tight

And you'll hate yourself for being single.



And all at once it seems so nice

The folks are throwin' shoes and rice.

You hurry to a spot that's just a dot on the map.

You're hooked you're cooked

You're caught in the tender trap.
