There's a tenderheart beating for you And a worn out man living on an old barstool He lost everything, but he ain't no fool 'Cause he's got a tenderheart beating for you There's a failed dream and he can't let go There's a love that haunts him like the holy ghost He can tune it out, but it still comes through 'Cause he's got a tenderheart beating for you There's a tenderheart beating for you There's a tenderheart beating for you Never loved another, never was untrue So do you stay in place? Do you let it move you to a tenderheart beating for you? There's a tenderheart beating for you There's a tenderheart and it's beating for you And a worn out man living on an old barstool He gave up everything, but he ain't no fool 'Cause he kept a tenderheart beating for you There's a tenderheart beating for you
