Some day soon I'll go away.

I'll find a place, better still,

And that is where I will stay.

And here they'll read my last will.

When they're thinking about me

And it's time for talk to start,

I hope someone's memory

Brings to mind a tender heart.

A tender heart, gentle mind,

A kindred spirit, you see,

Are things that keep us kind.

These are what I want to be.

I want to know love that's true.

I would like for you to know

That's the love I have for you,

Before the day when I go.

No one knows as well as you.

You have seen it from the start.

I hope others see it, too,

That I had a tender heart.

A tender heart, full of love,

And a spirit that was true

To the things from God above,

And so much in love with you.

My heart's tender, loving you

In so very many ways,

That my love will follow you

For all the rest of my days.

So much love, little time,

And I don't know how to start

So you'll know, in words that rhyme

That I have a tender heart.
