[Verse 1]
When I give these books away will my ink betray me?
Will my stories resist wings and grow feet and convince men that I'm boasting?
Or will my palms seek the company of lonely breaths?
Will they inspire subtle lovers to kiss with mouths they don’t have yet?
Boy, whoever reads about how much I adore you
I hope my words bring them something new, something new
[Chorus 1]
Ooh, child, bless your heart, keep a tender heart
Heart, heart
[Verse 2]
With you I can empty myself of all my rivers and become a remarkable sky
How could I keep these love documents to myself?
How could I restrict what's given me so much life?
Today I'll find a kind and burrowing creature that can carry all these pages into the ground
He’ll recite the details of your love with his family
And what was once a whisper will become a deep rumbling sound
And I hear
[Chorus 2]
Ooh, child bless your heart, keep a tender heart
Heart, heart
Heart, heart
[Verse 3]
I'm so thankful for the walk
I'm so thankful for the walk you take every morning
Because your footprints always lead to love
I love you so, I love you so
And I will keep a tender heart
Don't worry, boy, I'll keep a tender heart
