A Tender Trap - Joel Alme

The girl that I love is as clear as a diamond

And she moves like the trees in a warm summer night

But the girl that I love, she’s like a bird in my window

When she flies she will fly far away from here

As I gazed back on lonely years

I saw dust in every corner

Then I will, a dream is near

The dust has disappeared!

The girl that I love speaks soft as the morning

And she moves like a leaf in the late autumn night

But the girl that I love has my heart in her pocket

My mind in her purse, and my life in her hands

As I gazed back on lonely years

I saw dust in every corner

Then I will, a dream is near

The dust has disappeared!
