Sometimes When We Touch

(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
