Give It Time To Be Tender
Kris Kristofferson
Give It Time to Be Tender (with Rita Coolidge) Kristofferson/Fritts Album: Jesus Was a Capricorn [Intro] I feel the hunger you feel in your touch Burning my body and soul And it’s frightening just wanting somebody so much So close to losing control [Chorus] But darlin’ don’t make me surrender too soon I’m so afraid of the fall Please give it time to be tender And pretend it won’t hurt at all Slowly be gentle each step of the way I’ve never been loved before Let me believe you won’t turn away After I’ve opened the door [Chorus] Please give it time to be tender And pretend it won’t hurt at all
