Digital Tenderness

why does this feeling of togetherness
always scare me away?
why do the feelings that I have for you
have to become a word?

don't say you "love" me -oh no
don't ask that from me -no no no

that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness

here is the start for so many broken people
all with a hard luck story and a sad sad tale

don't say you love me -oh no
don't ask that from me -no no no

that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness

sometimes
I need to be by myself
I need to be by your side
I need...
sometimes
I need the company of art
I need the company of friends
I need you

and my heart is stronger
than a four-letter-long word

searching the eyes of so many lonely people
whose cowardice proved much too strong for vice

don't say you "love" me -oh no
don't ask that from me -no no no

that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love"
