I'm so confused
And I think I want to cry tonight
What must I do, baby?
You don't know what you mean
Oh tell me something
Tell me could this really be
You're so unpredictable
Why must you treat me this way?
I want you to love me for who I am
Whatever happened to the dreams we used to share?
Where did our love go?
Boy don't you even care?

Tender kisses, blown away
Tender kisses, gone tomorrow, gone today
Tender kisses
Bye baby, bye baby

Don't leave
Leave me here all alone
I want someone I can call my own
I may be young but I'm ready
Ready to fall in love
I'm so confused
You're so unpredictable
Trust in me as I trust in you
Put our hearts together
There's nothing we can't do

Whatever happened to the dreams we used to share?
Where did our love go?
Boy don't you even care?

Tender kisses, blown away
Tender kisses, gone tomorrow, gone today
Tender kisses
Bye baby, bye baby

Blown away
I wonder if you ever loved me
Tell me was I so blind that I could not see?
Holding on to the memories of the way you used to kiss me
All I ever really wanted was someone to call my own
I'll never know
You'll never know
We'll never know
All those tender kisses blown away

Tender kisses, blown away
Tender kisses, gone tomorrow, gone today
Tender kisses
Bye baby, bye baby

Goodbye my love
I'll say goodbye
