You walked in and found there were tears in her eyes
She couldn't tell you exactly why
There ain't nothing wrong, but there ain't nothing right

Try to figure it out, boy, you're wasting your time

All it takes is a tender moment

A loving word or the touch of your hand
What she needs is a tender moment
Let her know you'll always be her man

That's the kind of thing a woman understands

It's a fast-lane world that we're living in

Sometimes, love takes a little tale spin
But it don't take much to straighten it out
A little affection's all I'm talking about


All it takes is a tender moment
A loving word or the touch of your hand

What she needs is a tender moment
Let her know you'll always be her man
That's the kind of thing a woman understands


Every day, she needs to hear you love her so
So take the time to let her know


It ain't a brand new house, it ain't diamond rings
Big bank accounts don't mean a thing

Still gonna need what money can't buy
Someone to hold her when she needs to cry


All it takes is a tender moment
A loving word or the touch of your hand
What she needs is a tender moment

Let her know you'll always be her man
That's the kind of thing a woman understands


All it takes is a tender moment
A loving word or the touch of your hand
What she needs is a tender moment

Let her know you'll always be her man
That's the kind of thing a woman understands
