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 in - side;
You took my lips, you took my love so ten - der - ly.
(Instrumental Interlude: first verse)
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 in - side;
You took my lips, you took my love so ten - der - ly.
