Sometimes When We Touch

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

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 want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

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

But through the insecurity some tenderness survives

I m just another writer still trapped within my truths

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 wanna 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 drag 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've tried

I ve watch 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

Taken from

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 want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Fear in me subsides
