Текст песни — Leave A Tender Moment Alone — Billy Joel
Even though I'-m in love
Sometimes I get so afraid
I'-ll say something so wrong
Just to have something to say
I know the moment isn'-t right
To tell the girl a comical line
To keep the conversation light
I guess I'-m just frightened out of my mind
But if that'-s how I feel
Then it'-s the best feeling I'-ve even known
It'-s undeniably real
Leave a tender moment alone
Yes I know I'-m in love
But just when I ought to relax
I put my foot in my mouth
Cause I'-m just avoiding the facts
If the girl gets too close
If I need some room to escape
When the moment arose
I'-d tell her it'-s all a mistake
But that'-s not how I feel
No that'-s not the woman I'-ve known
She'-s undeniably real
So leave a tender moment alone
But it'-s not only me
Breaking down when the tension gets high
Just when I'-m in a serious mood
She is suddenly quiet and shy
Leave a tender moment
Leave it alone
I know the moment isn'-t right
To hold my emotions inside
To change the attitude tonight
I'-ve run out of places to hide
And if that'-s how I feelСлова песни — Leave A Tender Moment Alone — Billy Joel
