Tenderly by Billie Holiday Lyrics

The evening breeze caressed the trees
Tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze
Tenderly

Then you and I
Came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we

The shore was kissed by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly

Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly

Then you and I
Came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly

Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly
