You do something to me that I can't explain 
                              C7         F 
Hold me closer and I feel no pain ev'ry beat of my heart 
                      C     F   C 
We got something goin on 
               F7M        
Tender love is blind  It requires a dedication

All this love we feel needs no conversation
