Lyrics Too Much Tenderness - Steve Harley, Cockney Rebel

Too Much Tenderness

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
