Sometimes When We Touch lyrics by Howard Keel



SOMETIMES WHEN WE TOUCH

You ask me if I love you
and I choke on my reply
(oh) 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.

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 and all of it's strategy
leaves me bound in with my pride.
But through my insecurity
some tenderness survives.
But I'm just another singer
still trapped within my tune.
I'm a hesitant prizefighter,
still trapped within my you.

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.

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.

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.
