(love Is) The Tender Trap lyrics

THE TENDER TRAP

Sammy 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

Shell 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 thats just a dot on the
map



And then you wonder how it all came about

It’s too late
now there’s no getting out

You fell in love, and love is the tender trap
