First I rise, then I fall Seems like you don't want the love Of this man at all And it's sure been a lonely time Right up to the time I met you So if you take a love like mine Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to hurt me Fanny, be tender with my love, 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't desert me So you say to yourself, boy, You're out of your brain Do you think I'm gonna stand here All night in the rain? And it's the start of a love affair The moment when I first met you And if you want I'll take you there Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to break it Fanny, be tender with my love 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't forsake me. With my love, Our love will seal it together. Oh, with our love, You made a promise You'll always love me forever. Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to break it Fanny, be tender with my love, 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't forsake me. Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to break it Fanny, be tender with my love, 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't forsake me. Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to hurt me Fanny, be tender with my love, 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't desert me Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to break it Fanny, be tender with my love 'Cause it's all that I've got And my love won't desert me Be tender with my love You know how easy it is to hurt me Fanny, be tender with my love
