Tina Turner - Be tender with me baby Lyrics

you
don't let go don't let go
just stay with me another day
when i'm not myself please understand me
i'm so confused i don't know what to do
but don't give up don't give up
it just may take a little time

chorus
be tender with me baby
i'm so afraid you'll go away
be tender with me baby
always for always

i know that you've been patient with my weakness
and that you hate to see me cry
but i know yes i know
it doesn't hurt to be this way
but i'm so lonely i could die
repeat chorus
why does my heart keep hurting
why do i feel like i do
i hope you see this is not really me
it's just a phase that i'm going through
repeat chorus
