Tenderly Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong

[Trumpet Chorus: Louis Armstrong]

[Chorus: Ella Fitzgerald]
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

[Chorus: Louis Armstrong]
The evening breeze erased the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
Oh, the shores were kissed by the mist tenderly, ba-bah-di-den
I can't forget how two hearts met tenderly, ba-ba-da-deh
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my chops 'way from Pops tenderly

[Ella Fitzgerald vocal with Louis Armstrong's trumpet]
I would tenderly
Tenderly
Oh oh
Oh oh
(Imitation of Louis Armstrong's scatting), oh yes
