Walter Gross / Jack Lawrence [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/billie_holiday/tenderly.html ]
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
