Joan Armatrading - Tender Trap lyrics

You come home after work
And the first thing that you do
Take me into your arms
And you find out how I've been
If the phone rings nobody answers
This is time is ours alone
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
I can't begin to prove how much I want you
You've got to know
That you make me feel much stronger
Than anyone has the right to
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la

When you walk through the door
From a hard day's work
And someone's there to make you
Forget the nine to five
When they throw their arms around you
Make you feel you're alive
What other heaven is there when
That sweet voice says
If the phone rings nobody answers
That's when you know working all the hours
That God sends pays the rent
But it don't cover all your needs you
Need a whole lot of love la la
And when that love is real
And makes you feel complete whooo
The world is right la la

I can't begin to prove how much I want you
You've got to know
That you make me feel much stronger
Than anyone has the right to
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
We're lying peaceful in the tender trap
La la
