Bob Catley - Tender Is The Night lyrics

Just like a celluloid dream She burnt on acetate Stealing every last scene Just smouldering away Tonight the radio has said That now you've pa**ed and gone As something deep inside breaks Your memory lingers on The face of the century This cruel, twisted destiny A fatal intensity That crossed beyond control For what it appears to be Is life taken needlessly But how much you mean to me God only knows Tender is the night I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream With nothing to say Tendrils of light Covered whimsical vanity Render the white to grey Tender is the night And soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme Of tears in the rain Slender is the knife On the wings of insanity Taking your life away They made a suicide claim With no one else to blame I know you must have cried out For help that never came On just how many broken dreams You built your life upon Remains a mystery And now your suffering has gone The face of the century This beautiful entity A fatal intensity That crossed beyond control For what it appears to be Is life taken needlessly But how much you mean to me God only knows Tender is the night I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream With nothing to say Tendrils of light Covered whimsical vanity Render the white to grey Tender is the night And soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme Of tears in the rain Slender is the knife On the wings of insanity Taking your life away As cruel as love is The face of the century This cruel, twisted destiny A fatal intensity That crossed beyond control For what it appears to be Is life taken needlessly But how much you mean to me God only knows Tender is the night I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream With nothing to say Tendrils of light Covered whimsical vanity Render the white to grey Tender is the night And soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme Of tears in the rain Slender is the knife On the wings of insanity Taking your life away As cruel as love is
