Sometimes When We Touch

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
Id rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
For who am I to judge you

In what you say or do

Im only just beginning
To see the real you

And sometimes when we touch

The honestys 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

Romances an honest strategy
Leaves me grappling with my pride

But through the years of maturity
Some tenderness survives
Im just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize-fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honestys 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

At times Id like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times Id like to break through
And hold you endlessly

At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try

Ive watched whil love commands you

And Ive watched love pass you by

At times I think were drifters

Still searching for a friend

A brother or a sister

But then the passion flares again....

And sometimes when we touch

The honestys 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
