Withers, Bill - Tender Things Lyrics






Sweet and tender things
Are so much nicer than silly games
Softness
Makes it easier to smile

It's better to remember things
That make the sun shine in your memory
There's clouds enough for you to see
Smile for me and take a look around

And you know that you're in love when things
Are better than you thought they'd ever be
Won't you smile for me
I like what's going down

[hum interlude]

And you know that you're in love when things
Are better than you thought they'd ever be
Make a pretty smile for me
I like what's going down (since you've been around)

Sweet and tender things
Makes you feel better than playing games
Softness
Makes it easier to smile

You're in love when things
Are better than you thought they'd ever be
Smile for me
I sure do like what's going down (since you've been around)

    Bill Presley Amen to that, Bill Presley. God Bless You.

  5. B.... C....

    This Song sounds like relaxing unintentional ASMR from back in the 1970's before ASMR videos became the "in-thing" in the second decade of the 21st century on You Tube videos.

  6. M.... R....

    GOD BLESS YOU BILL WITHERS

    Sweet!!!!

  30. l.... ....

    I guess I am just selfish.Still want to hear more from him. He left the business too soon. No last bow, No waves goodbye,No "This is it"(like Michael).No final album. No "If you want me to stay"(like Sly). No " I'm going home but stay tuned". No "Kiss me goodnight" Left feeling like a young teenager who has been jilted by their first love.

    l.... ....

    locadisa He left the music business because of a health condition that rendered him unable to play the guitar, I saw this on a interview he did when he was 89.

  31. l.... ....

    I am in awe of such a genius with words and music. Blessed with the ability to write and perform as he has. I guess some people are just destined to be and some are not. From installing toilets in commercial aircrafts to topping the charts with songs like Use Me, Lean on Me,Make a smile for me,Grandmas Hands,Soul Shadows,Aint No Sunshine. I still don't think that Bill understands how much of an impact that he has made on Real American Music.Bill,You didn't stay as long as we wanted you to stay.

  32. M.... A....

    Underrated masterpiece by a forgotten genius. Everybody rightly remembers Marvin Gaye, but Bill Withers wasn't inferior at all!

    M.... A....

    So right my friends, Bill lyrics were mind alternating. Make you think, oh yeah :-)

  33. G.... W....

    "...and you know you're in love when things are better than you thought they'd ever be!" Ain't that the truth!

    G.... W....

    This phone is awesome incomparable

    G.... W....

    George Whitney Yes it is the truth

    G.... W....

    So totally unexpected! A pleasant
