Tenderness - Deb Talan

We did not ask how things were defined

Some pieces were missing but the puzzle looked fine

One day we look up from inside a song

Something felt more right

Something was wrong

Shouldn’t we regret love like this?

It’s not a shame its tenderness

But we made a mess

And that is how we will be remembered here

That is how we will be remembered here

Months go by you with your wife

It takes time to disassemble a whole life

And I can’t ask you for anything, I take what I get

Aren’t other people and saints more than I deserver?

Or maybe it’s true I don’t deserve you

Should I regret a love like this?

It’s not a shame its tenderness

But we made a mess

And that is how we will be remembered here

That is how we will be remembered here

It the end of an era so unexpected

Clear as the line on the palm of your hand

You and I we started to stumbling

Into the next dance we didn’t plan this

Death of our friends in the sand

We can’t regret a love like this

It’s not a shame its tenderness

But we made a mess

And that is how we will be remembered here

That is how we will be remembered here
