Human Touch

Human Touch - Joe Cocker

Written by：Bruce Springsteen

You and me we were the pretenders

We let it all slip away

In the end what you don't surrender

Well the world just strips away

Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers

Ain't gonna find no miracles here

Well you can wait on your blesses my darlin'

But I got a deal for you right here

I ain't lookin' for praise or pity

I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch

I just want someone to talk to

And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch

Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town

Ain't no bread from heavenly skies

Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood

It's just you and me tonight

Tell me in a world without pity

Do you think what I'm asking too much

I just want something to hold on to

And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch

Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize

Well it comes at a hard hard price

You can't shut off the risk and the pain

Without losin' the love that remains

We're all riders on this train

So you've been broken and you've been hurt

Show me somebody who ain't

Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain

But hell a little touchup

And a little paint

You might need somethin' to hold on to

When all the answers they don't amount to much

Somebody that you could just to talk to

And a little of that human touch

Tell me the world without pity

Do you think what I'm asking too much

I just want to feel you in my arms

Share a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch
