5 o'clock this morning
The night is giving in
I come home without warning
And quietly let myself in
And as I watch you sleeping
I see the trace of a smile
I know that I'm in your dreams somewhere
And that you still care

And in a tender moment like this
When all I can hear is you breathing
In a tender moment like this
You know you've got me believing
That loving you is all there is
In a tender moment like this

Seven days that I've been away
Are seven too many for me
But you know that I've got to play
It's me they're paying to see
And as I watch you sleeping
You slowly open your eyes
That crowd fades to a distant roar
And I'm home once more

And in a tender moment like this
When all I can hear is you breathing
In a tender moment like this
You know you've got me believing
That loving you is all there is
In a tender moment like this
All of my life I've been burning
With a fire that's swept me alone
But how I would trade every song, every place
For this one moment alone

And in a tender moment like this
When all I can hear is you breathing
In a tender moment like this
You know you've got me believing
That loving you is all there is
In a tender moment like this
That loving you is all there is
In a tender moment like this
