Song Lyrics

Hey, oh

Oh when it rains it always pours
But I have found a friend in Noah
Still the dogs they bite and it's cold at night
And the sharks deep in the water
There's more of us than ever
But we're just lonely altogether
So baby, reach out and remind me that it's real

I need you to love me tenderly
I need you to touch me gentle, please
'Cause it's cold out there
It's tough enough
So baby, love me tenderly

Oh it's a roller coaster ride
We all need someone to hold onto
A friend who understands exactly what we must be going for
If you can trust a stranger
And go on reach out touch your neighbor
And do your best to let them know they're not alone

Why don't you just love me tenderly?
Why don't you just touch me gentle? Please
'Cause it's cold out there
And they like to play rough
So baby, love me tenderly

Oh please, just close the door behind you, dear
Oh don't you let the cold inside of here
No I don't wanna talk about it
Heard just quite enough about it
Baby, won't you take me outta here?

Come on and love me tenderly
How about you touch me gentle, please
'Cause it's cold out there
It's tough enough
So baby, love me tenderly
Why don't you just love me tenderly?
Love me gentle, please
'Cause it's cold out there
And they like to play rough
So baby, love me tenderly

Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me, love me

Baby, love me tenderly
