Tender Defender

(Ooh!)

We didn't mean to get angry (ooh!)
We didn't mean to get mad (ooh)
And we can't say that it won't, babe
Won't ever happen, again

But I can tell you one thing
When nothing is making sense
I wanna bring you closer
I wanna hold your hand

I wanna be your tender defender, for always, forever
Always through the hard times, remember
You got a tender defender
Tender defender (ooh!)

We didn't end on a good note
We didn't sleep through the night
Running away from the monster that we both buried alive

Well, I'm gonna hold a mirror, and you're gonna shine a light
And we're gonna face all our fears, babe
We're gonna win this fight

I wanna be your tender defender, for always, forever
Always through the hard times, remember
You got a tender defender
Tender defender (ooh!)

The warrior's aware the work is never done
The war is never won (ooh!)
But it still defends
And that's a-who I am (ooh!, Ooh!)

I wanna be! (Tender defender) (ooh!)
(Always, forever) (ooh!)
Always (ooh!) (Through the hard times, remember) through the hard times, remember
You've got a tender defender
Tender defender
(Ooh!)

Tender defender
Tender defender
Tender defender
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tender defender, yeah
(Ooh!)
