Lyrics of Song Tender Trap The

Writer(s): cahn/van heusen


You see a pair of laughing eyes
And suddenly your sighing sighs
You´re thinking nothing´s wrong
You string along, boy, then snap!

Those eyes, those sighs, they´re part of the tender trap

You´re hand in hand beneath the trees
And soon there´s music in the breeze
You´re acting kind of smart, until your heart just goes wap!

Those trees, that breeze, they´re part of the tender trap

Some starry night, when her kisses make you tingle
She´ll hold you tight, and you´ll hate yourself for being single

And all at once it seems so nice
The folks are throwing shoes and rice
You hurry to a spot, that´s just a dot on the map

You´re hooked, you´re cooked, you´re caught in the tender trap

Some starry night, when her kisses make you tingle
She´ll hold you tight, and you´ll hate yourself for being single

And all at once it seems so nice
The folks are throwing shoes and rice
You hurry to a spot that´s just a dot on the map

And then you wonder how it all came about
It´s too late now there´s no gettin´ out
You fell in love, and love is the tender trap
