Lyrics The Oak Ridge Boys

The Oak Ridge Boys

In A Tender Moment

5 o’clock this morning

The night is giving in.

I come home without warning

And quietly let myself in.

And as I watch you sleeping

I see the trace of a smile.

I know that I’m in your dreams somewhere

And that you still care.

And in a tender moment like this

When all I can hear is you breathing.

In a tender moment like this

You know you’ve got me believing

That loving you is all there is.

In a tender moment like this.

Seven days that I’ve been away

Are seven too many for me,

But you know that I’ve got to play

It’s me they’re paying to see.

And as I watch you sleeping

You slowly open your eyes.

That crowd fades to a distant roar

And I’m home once more.

And in a tender moment like this

When all I can hear is you breathing.

In a tender moment like this

You know you’ve got me believing

That loving you is all there is.

In a tender moment like this.

All of my life I’ve been burning

With a fire that’s swept me alone

But how I would trade every song, every place

For this one moment alone.

And in a tender moment like this

When all I can hear is you breathing.

In a tender moment like this

You know you’ve got me believing

That loving you is all there is.

In a tender moment like this.

That loving you is all there is.

In a tender moment like this.
