Tenderly
Billy Vaughn & His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

Line by Line Meaning

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The gentle wind softly touched the leaves of the trees


The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
The trees swayed in response to the soothing wind


Then you and I came wandering by
You and I were walking aimlessly without any particular destination


And lost in a sigh were we
We were so overwhelmed by the moment that we let out a deep breath


The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
The waves gently touched the shoreline, creating a misty atmosphere


I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
I will never forget the moment our hearts met with excitement and anticipation


Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
When you hugged me, it felt like you were enveloping me in your love and protection


You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly
Our intimate moment was filled with tenderness and affection as you kissed me and took my love
