Tenderness Peter Hammill

[Verse 1]
Nothing I can say, but this much I can do:
If you want I'll stay and be with you
Just let the tears flood down and, yes
I can offer you tenderness

[Verse 2]
What is gone is gone, it can be no more
So we must move along and close the door
I'm not his match, this I confess –
But still I offer you tenderness
No more, no less:
I can offer you tenderness

[Chorus]
He'll stay with you, I know...
(Now's the time to)
Remember and let go

[Verse 3]
Life will turn around though now it's growing dim
Although you feel the light's gone out with him
Cry out all your tears, you loved him best –
Still I offer you tenderness
No more, no less;
Deep in your distress
I'm here to offer some tenderness
I'm here to offer you tenderness
All I can offer's tenderness
