Lover Lyrics - Tony Bennett

When you held your hand to my heart 

Dear you did something grand to my heart 

And we played the scene to perfection 

Though we didn't have the time to rehearse 

Since you took control of my life 

You have become the whole of my life 

When you are away its awful 

And when you are with me its worse 

Lover, when I'm near you 

And I hear you speak my name 

Softly in my ear 

You breathe a flame

Lover, when we're dancing 

Keep on glancing in my eyes 

Til love's only trancing music dies 

All of my future is in you 

You're every plan I design 

Promise you'll always continue 

To be mine 

Lover, please be tender 

When your tender fears depart 

Lover, I surrender to my heart 

Well I say that the devil is in you 

And to resist you I try 

But if you didn't continue 

I would die

Lover, please be tender 

When your tender fears depart 

Lover, I surrender to my heart 

To my heart, lover
