Treat Me Gently In The Morning Lyrics

Rick Springfield Treat Me Gently In The Morning

She remembers the night they first were alone
When he took her home and he said, "I need you, won't you stay"
And all through that night his eyes had a light
That burned very bright and she hoped his words weren't well read lines
A little ill at ease she whispered, baby please
Treat me gently in the morning, take my heart but stay with me
Treat me gently in the morning, please
Her mama said, "Silly girl, you should marry him or leave
He'll only make you grieve when he decides it's over, wake up child"
But the years fell away, they grew closer they found
Though they had their ups and downs just like lovers do, still she'd say
It's okay to fight, when we're alone late at night, I'll always say
Treat me gently in the morning, take my heart but stay with me
Treat me gently in the morning
It all went so fast, one day he went away, he said St. Tropez
But he died that winter in a plane
The last thing he sent was a postcard from Rome
It read "I'm coming home, lady I love you"
And under his name was a P.S. that read, very simply it said
Treat me gently in the morning, I can't live another night
Treat me gently in the morning, I'll be on that plane tonight
 (repeats out)
