美國製作人［娃娃臉］──New jack swing／放克／節奏藍調曲──［Tender Lover／溫柔愛人］

Feels good, everybody

Tender lover, tender love

Eleanor Rigby

Spends half her life all alone

No fault of her own

Made a decision

Love has no place in her home

Love it has a right to go

Love has no limit

If you believe in love

Itll open up so

Dont even give in

Cause if it starts to give

Just hold on

We didnt didnt make it

But lovell get you by

If you only try

Just dont give up on love

Cause it didnt work out this time

Tender lover, girl, Im so sorry

Well I never meant to hurt you

I never meant to break your heart

Tender love, so broken hearted

Well I never meant to break your

Break your little tender heart

Dont ever give up

In spite of our love

Love is much too precious

Its greater than both of us

Theres more than enough

Keep lookin for love

Just be a believer

Itll give you what you want

Sky is the limit

If you believe in love

Itll open up so

Dont ever give in

Cause if it starts to give

Just hold on

We didnt didnt make it

But lovell get you by

If you only try

Just dont give up on love

Cause it didnt work out this time

My tender lover

Tender lover, tender love

Tender lover, tender love

Love has no limit

If you believe in love

Itll open up so

Dont even give in

Cause if it starts to give

Just hold on

We didnt didnt make it

But lovell get you by

If you only try

Just dont give up on love

Cause it didnt work out this time

My tender lover

Tender lover, tender love

Tender lover, tender love
