  2487>She tried to show me how to love
  I bit her lips and bruised her arms
  No I hadn't learned Tenderness
  She asked "what does love mean to you?"
  I grabbed her hair and pulled her down
  I looked in her eyes and I laughed
  The love I feel is hard and fast
  It's for a face and for one night
  I don't need to own anyone
 
 
  She said, she said all your women burn in your flame
  But as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge
 
 
  She laughed and said "You'll go thru hell
  You'll live in lonely rooms unknown
  And watch for my lost Tenderness"
  I went from her to someone else and someone else
  No, I couldn't be satisfied
 
 
  She said, she said all your women burn in your flame
  And as it dies, as it dies, they'll leave you and seek revenge
 
 
  I wish that I could find her now
  My love is soft, my love is warm
  I'd take her to bed tenderly
  Yes I'd take her to bed tenderly
