There's a light in the desert tonight
Where are you now? I want you now
Will you lay them on my shoulders
Will you lay them on my eyes
Then, when it's over I need tender hands
What I mean, when I say
I want your tender hands
Then, when it's over I need tender hands
Will you lay them on my eyes
And I need tender hands
I need tender hands tonight
I need tender hands tonight
I am only a voice in a city of noise
I see the storm grow
Then, when it's over I have tender hands
I want a friend, I want her now
And I need, tender hands to hold me
I will give all the love that I have
Will you lay them on my shoulders
To hold me through the night
And I need tender hands to take me
Under the moonlight
All the way to paradise
Reaching your heart
Give me tender hands
Come out of the shadows
Oh, give me, tender hands to take me
Feeling the heartache
Will you lay them on my shoulders
All the way to paradise
To hold me through the night
I want a friend, I want a friend to lay down beside me
You have tender hands
To hold you through the night, darling
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Wondering why
Touch me with your velvet mouth
And I need tender hands to take me
Someone who knows
Can you hear me this time?
You know that I cannot always be strong
My tender hands will hold you through the night
That I need, tender hands to hold me
All the way to paradise
