Leave A Tender Moment Alone Lyrics - 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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 

Photos 

And 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 

You got to leave a tender moment alone 

Leave a tender moment 

Leave it alone 

You've got to leave a tender moment 

Leave a tender moment alone
