Sometimes When We Touch Lyrics

    (Barry Mann, Dan Hill)

    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
    in what you say or do
    I'm only just beginning
    to see the real you

    And sometimes when we touch
    the honesty's too much
    and I have to close my eyes and hide
    I want to hold you till I die
    till we both break down and cry
    I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

    Romance and all it's strategy
    leaves me battling with my pride
    But through 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

    And sometimes when we touch
    the honesty's too much
    and I have to close my eyes and hide
    I want to hold you till I die
    till we both break down and cry
    I want to 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 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
    but then the passion flares again

    And sometimes when we touch
    the honesty's too much
    and I have to close my eyes and hide
    I want to hold ya till I die
    till we both break down and cry
    I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides
    Subsides
