Bill Withers — Tender Things lyrics

Lyrics

Sweet and tender things*
Are so much nicer than silly games
Softness
Makes it easier to smile
It’s better to remember things
That make the sun shine in your memory
There’s clouds enough for you to see
Smile for me and take a look around
And you know that you’re in love when things
Are better than you thought they’d ever be Won’t you smile for me I like what’s going down
And you know that you’re in love when things
Are better than you thought they’d ever be Make a pretty smile for me I like what’s going down (since you’ve been around)
Sweet and tender things
Makes you feel better than playing games
Softness
Makes it easier to smile
You’re in love when things
Are better than you thought they’d ever be Smile for me I sure do like what’s going down (since you’ve been around)
