In the flicker of a candle flame I see a photograph of yesterday And then I start to think about your gentle smile Tender Light I feel your essence drawing close to me And though I know it's just a fantasy It still seems real enough to me as I close my eyes My love I feel that I could even die And never have to question why Safe in your arms, anywhere anytime Sailing across our sea of love So now I'm here, falling to pieces I'm still in love so what's left for me to do Tender Light So many visions in my memory A child afraid and crying by the sea It seems so hard to ever say just what we feel Tender Light Red sandals step too close to breaking waves Like laughter lost inside of fairy tales Yes one by one I start to see what they mean to me My love you know you make me feel so warm Whispering your words so soft Time could stand still, anyday anywhere Sailing across our sea of love It's really love and growing stronger And in my mind I just don't know what to do So now I'm here falling to pieces I'm still in love, you know there's really only you Tender Light
