SOMETIMES WHEN WE TOUCH by Dan Hill

"Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, Love gives us a fairytale"

*SOMETIMES WHEN WE TOUCH* (lyrics)

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 till i die
Till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides.

Romance's an honest strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through 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)
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And i have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die
Till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides.

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 were drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again.
(CHORUS)
