Tough And Tender

Baby wants to hold your hand
She just wants to hold your hand
Why she wants to hold it you may never understand
But she just wants to hold your hand
Now she wants to steal your heart
Baby wants to steal your heart
What started out as nothing is tearing you apart
'Cause now she wants to steal your heart

You would have her surrender
But she'll never let go
Oh, she's too tough and tender
Tough to love, tender though

Baby gets down on her knees
Down on her knees
She knows there's more than one way she can please
When she's on her knees
Oh, but baby stands up to you
Oh, she stands up to you
She'll lead you to the doorway but she'll never let you through
And she stands up to you

Oh, you would have her surrender
But she'll never let go
Oh, she's too tough and tender
Tough to love, tender though
And you may want her forever
But she'll never let go
Oh, she's too tough and tender
Tough to love, tender though (tender though)

You may want her forever
But she'll never let go
Oh, she's too tough and tender
Tough to love, tender though (tender though)

You would have her surrender (tender)
But she'll never let go (tender)
Oh, she's too tough and tender
Tough to love, tender though (tender)
You may want her forever (you may never reach her)
But she'll never let go (you may never get into her)
Oh, she's too tough and tender (just part of the tough times)
Tough to love, tender though (bite down hard)
