Don't use your gentle ways To make me do the things I know I shouldn't do Don't use your soft spoken words To make the lies you're telling me sound true Don't ever think the loving tender touch that's part of you Will make me fall again for the soft and gentle ways of you Don't use your burning kiss To start a fire in me I know I can't control Don't use your misty eyes, 'cause I won't fall I've seen those tears before Don't ever think because I need your love the way I do You can make me give in to the soft and gentle ways of you Your wild kind of love still tears me apart But, it takes more than a warm embrace to fill an empty heart Don't think your gentle ways Can just erase the fear I have of loving you And those soft spoken words are empty sounds There's nothing you can do But, don't ever think that I would walk away from your love If it were true For then, I'd gladly give in to the soft and gentle ways of you Soft and gentle ways Soft and gentle ways Soft and gentle ways
