gentle

Please be gentle You know I'm fragile Just soften the blow I already know I know you're worried Please don't hurry Take it nice and slow 'Cause I already know What you mean Please don't leave I've seen this coming There was a warning From a mile away I mean, look at your face (look at your face) I'll keep composure While you're gliding over All of your words Does this only hurt me Please don't leave (please don't leave) The tread on our shoes were worn through the soles As you told me things that I have never been told I was a fool to believe I could ever be loved As you took my old shoes and tossed them in the mud The mud made from all of the tears that I cried that were pooling around Not to my surprise 'cause you told me the news, even though it hurt It was deja vu 'cause my thoughts told me first Ah (please be gentle), ah (please be gentle) Ah (please be gentle) Please be gentle You know I'm fragile Just soften the blow I already know I already know
