In the tenderness of the night they heard a voice
whisper – all music is holy
Tender is the Night
The cadence
and the power
of the lyrics
flowing through
the amplified voice
in the blue of
the night
threw a mantle
of pure magic
about the room
On that magnetized
cloud so dense
they waltzed
and the truth
of the lyrics
overcame them
The amplified voice
so cool
threw a mantle
so dense
And the good time
religion
and modern pop
found a unity
so complete
In the tenderness
of the night
they heard a voice
whisper
all music is holy
