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 want to hold you 'til I die

'til we both break down and cry

I want to hold you 'til this fear in me subside

Romance and all it's strategy

Have me battling with my pride

But through the insecurities

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 to 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 this fear in me subside

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 watch while love command you and

I watch love pass you by

At time I think we're drifters

Still searching for a friend

A brother or a sister

Than the passion we're to gain

Sometimes when we touch

The honesty's to much

And I have to close my eyes and hide

I want to hold you untill I die

Till we both break down and cry

I want to hold you till this fear in me subside

I want to hold you till this fear in me subside

I want to hold you till this fear in me subside
