Tender Is The Night
Bryan Ferry
Now picture this
My point of view
In an ideal world
I see the likes of you
Such as it is
Babes in the wood
At the best of times
I feel misunderstood
No work and no play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
No play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
It makes no sense
You’d think of me
When I’m out of place
In your society
I want to be
Where strangers meet
I want to hold you
At the dark end of the street
No work and no play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
No play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
Is this the end
Then let me know
Are you wanting me to stay
Or should I go
Your fancy words
Spin fast and loose
I’m too tongue-tied
For the company you choose
No work and no play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
No play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I’m frantic today
