Leave a Tender Moment Alone

Even though I'm in love
 Sometimes, I get so afraid
 I'll say something so wrong
 Just to have something to say
 I 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 mind
 But if that's how I feel
 Then, it's the best feeling I've ever known
 It's undeniably real
 Leave a tender moment alone
 Yes, 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 mistake
 But that's not how I feel
 No, that's not the woman I've known
 She's undeniably real
 So, leave a tender moment alone
 But 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 shy
 Hmm, mmm-
 Leave a tender moment alone (leave a tender moment)
 Leave it alone (leave a tender moment alone)
 I 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
 Oh, leave a tender moment alone
 Ahh-ahh, ahh-ah (leave a tender moment alone)
 Leave a tender moment alone, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
 Leave a tender moment alone
 Leave a tender moment
 Leave it alone, oh, oh, oh, oh
 Leave a tender moment alone
 You got to leave a tender moment alone
 Leave a tender moment alone
 Leave a tender moment alone
