Sometimes When We Touch
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do
I'm only just beginning
To see the real you
(Chorus)
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you 'til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
Romance and all its strategies
Leaves me battling with my pride
But for all the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize-fighter
Still trapped within my youth
(Chorus)
At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
And then the passion flares again
(Chorus)
