Too Much Tenderness - Steve Harley, Cockney Rebel

I know what I mean til you ask me I know what I want to do with you

I know what I mean til you ask me Coming off when you know what I want to do And now the only thing for us Is quit the questions, finish the fuss

Dont give up babe and dont despair

Just give the truth and then

When it comes to this, when it come to this

Chorus: you give me too much tenderness

Dyou know what you feel when I ask you

Dyou know what you want to do with me Dyou know what you see when I show you

You make everything seem unseemly

And now the only thing to do Is carry the cuckold (shoo-bee-doo-bee-doo)

He give you to much sympathy and too much love

And then when it comes to this, when it comes to this

Chorus: you give me too much tenderness

I know where Ive been til you ask me Its getting confusing in my head

I know what Ive seen til you ask me

(or am I blind like somebody once said ?)

And now the only place to go Is make for the mountains, head for the snow

He gives you everything he could

He gives you his heart and soul

But then when it comes to this, when it comes to this

Chorus: you give me too much tenderness
