Gentle

[Intro]

{Verse}
Caught me by surprise
Hesitant start
Only fools rush in
And I rushed to give him my heart

The wise one take
The selfless break
Or so I learned

But unafraid
You celebrate
The grief, the hurt

[Chorus]
Come close
Stay here
And I will keep you safe

Tender
Fragile
But I am not afraid
I know you're careful
And this love is gentle

[Verse]
Caught me by surprise
Hooked your fingers in mine
No walls to break
You're always on my side

I know they're wrong
I know you're strong
That hasn't changed

But selflessly
You care for me
Won't you let me do the same

{Chorus}
Come close
Stay here
And I will keep you safe

Tender
Fragile
But I am not afraid
I know you're careful
And this love is gentle

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
No matter the end
No matter the distance
I'll see you again
It's just the beginning
Oh, I know a place
I know a river
I'll promise I'll wait
I promise I'll linger
Don't say goodbye
Yet

{Chorus}
Come close
Stay here
And I will keep you safe

Tender
Fragile
Forgiving and selfless and brave

Come close
Stay here
And I will keep you safe

Tender
Fragile
But I am not afraid
I know you're careful
I know you're careful
I know you're careful
And this love is gentle

[Outro]
