I used to go my way all by myself
Me, my shadow and I
Happy-go-lucky, nobody else 
But me, my shadow and I
One day out of the clear blue skies
I dared to look in your eyes

So tenderly
That's how love fell on me, yes indeed

I used to laugh at all my friends
Gettin' ready for Valentines Day
Givin' candy and kisses and friendship rings (ooh, ooh)
"Sweets for the sweet," they say
One day when the sun was warm (ahh, ahh)
I couldn't help but take you in my arms

So tenderly
That's how love fell on me

Listen, Kim
It didn't hit me like a ton of bricks
But I felt it just the same
Marvin, love came creepin' right into my heart
When you whispered my name
So sweet and tender, I had to surrender
I knew I had really been hit (ooh woo)

So tenderly
That's how love fell on me, yeah
So tenderly
That's how love fell on me

I couldn't help myself at all
You know, you came along and I had to fall

So tenderly (really ruined me)
That's how love fell on me
So tenderly
That's how love fell on me (you got me baby)
So tenderly
That's how love fell on me (ow)
