Jennifer Warnes - Rock You Gently Lyrics

Performed by : Jennifer Warnes

Written by : Henry Gaffney & Gregory Abbott









all your life love's hurt you

turned you out then burnt you

held you high off the ground

you touched the moon

then it dropped you down

I know your heart's been broken

trust don't come so easily

it takes time, that's all right

just let me heal your heart tonight



I will rock you gently

I will be there when the night comes down

I will rock you so gently

I'm gonna rock you gently

I will be there when the morning comes

I will rock you, rock you



late at night they haunt you

lovers' voices point you

back in time, wide awake

you curse the moon 'til the morning breaks

I know that lonely feeling

we are two hearts still healing

hurry here, hurry now

please come to me

let me show you how



I will rock you gently

I will be there when the night comes down

I will rock you so gently

I'm gonna rock you gently

I will be there when the morning comes

I will rock you, rock you



little by little, day by day

all through the night into the day

I'll be your lover, I'll be your friend

open up your heart and let me in
