Even though I'm in love
Sometimes I get so afraid
I'll say something so wrong
Just to have something to sayI know the moment isn't right
To tell the girl a comical line
To keep the conversation light
I guess I'm just frightened out of my mindBut if that's how I feel
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
It's undeniably real
Leave a tender moment aloneYes I know I'm in love
But just when I ought to relax
I put my foot in my mouth
Cause I'm just avoiding the facts
If the girl gets too close
If I need some room to escape
When the moment arose
I'd tell her it's all a mistakeBut that's not how I feel
No that's not the woman I've known
She's undeniably real
So leave a tender moment aloneBut it's not only me
Breaking down when the tension gets high
Just when I'm in a serious mood
She is suddenly quiet and shyLeave a tender moment
Leave it aloneI know the moment isn't right
To hold my emotions inside
To change the attitude tonight
I've run out of places to hide
And if that's how I feel
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
It's undeniably real
Leave a tender moment aloneYou got to leave a tender moment alone
Leave a tender moment
Leave it alone
You've got to leave a tender moment
Leave a tender moment alone
