ROD STEWART - Sometimes When We Touch lyrics

rate me

(barry mann, dan hill)<br><br>You ask me if I love you<br>And I choke on my reply<br>I'd rather hurt you honestly<br>Than mislead you with a lie<br>And who am I to judge you<br>In what you say or do<br>I'm only just beginning<br>To see the real you<br><br>And sometimes when we touch<br>The honesty's too much<br>And I have to close my eyes and hide<br>I want to hold you till I die<br>Till we both break down and cry<br>I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides<br><br>Romance and all it's strategy<br>Leaves me battling with my pride<br>But through all the insecurity<br>Some tenderness survives<br>I'm just another writer<br>Still trapped within my truth<br>A hesitant prize fighter<br>Still trapped within my youth<br><br>And sometimes when we touch<br>The honesty's too much<br>And I have to close my eyes and hide<br>I want to hold you till I die<br>Till we both break down and cry<br>I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides<br><br>At times I'd like to break you<br>And drive you to your knees<br>At times I'd like to break through<br>And hold you endlessly<br>At times I understand you<br>And I know how hard you try<br>I watched while love commands you<br>And I've watched love pass you by<br>At times I think we're drifters<br>Still searching for a friend<br>A brother or a sister<br>But then the passion flares again<br><br>And sometimes when we touch<br>The honesty's too much<br>And I have to close my eyes and hide<br>I want to hold ya till I die<br>Till we both break down and cry<br>I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides<br>Subsides
