It happened again
There's a colorless sky
That's dimmed me again
I've run out of why's
Hank Williams he’s been grieving
and I'm scanning the psalms
It says when Jesus was here
They stilettoed his palms
And the pledge and the vows
you find if you seek
But what if you try
and find nothing but bleak
Turn me tender again
Fold me into you
Turn me tender again
and mould me like new
Faith lost its promise
and bruised me deep blue
Turn me tender
Through union with you
Can I lay with you now
Like the very first time
I've had rooms full of dollars
But I'm down to a dime
For there's wonder and awe
in the mane of a lion
But there is nowhere to go tonight
I’m chapters from zion
You're still my cryptic
You are my cherishing prayer
with serenity kisses
that can soothe and repair
Turn me tender again
Fold me into you
Turn me tender again
And mould me like new
When faith lost its promise
I stood there deep blue
Turn me tender ...
Through union with you
And laments they have a purpose
and laments have a cost
and the requiem playing
as she can gather last
But it sometimes tastes sour
All the sweetness of hope
While the blizzards keep on raging
[ On this lover’s slope | on all these lonely slopes ]
But I don't wanna freeze here
Inside or out
For it's you that dissolve
all my cold wars of doubt
So turn me tender again
Fold me into you
Turn me tender again
And come on ... mold me like new
When faith lost the promise
I stood there deep blue
Turn me tender
Turn me tender again
Fold me into you
Turn me tender again
Come on ... mould me like new
When faith lost its promise
I'm standing deep blue
Turn me tender
Through union with you ...
