Sometimes When We Touch

SOMETIMES WHEN WE TOUCH

C           F              G            C

You ask me if I love you And I choke on my reply                                     

    Em                 Am           D                 G

I'd rather hurt you honestly Than mislead you with a lie

    Dm          G             C        C7    Am      

And who I am to judge you On what you say or do?

    F                C      D           G

I'm only just beginning to see the real you

      C                  F        G          Em

And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much

    Am                  D        G   

And I have to close my eyes and hide

     C                  F          G                   Em

I wanna hold you til I die Til we both break down and cry

    Dm                     G              C           

I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

    C                   F        G                       C

Romance and all its strategy Leaves me battling with my pride

      Em            Am            D              G

But through the insecurity  Some tenderness survives

     Dm            G           C         C7       Am      

I'm just another writer Still trapped within my truth

    F             C             D                 G

A hesitant prize fighter Still trapped within my youth

      C                  F        G          Em

And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much

    Am                  D        G   

And I have to close my eyes and hid

     C                  F          G                   Em

I wanna hold you til I die Til we both break down and cry

    Dm                     G              C           

I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

           

     G                                                  C

At times I'd like to break you  And drive you to your knees

    Am                       Em         F            G  

At times I'd like to break through And hold you endlessly

      C             F             G                     C

At times I understand you  And I know how hard you've tried

      Em                    Am                  D                   G

I've watched while love commands you And I've watched love pass you by

     Dm                    G             C      C7     Am

At times I think we're drifters Still searching for a friend

     F          C                    D             G

A brother or a sister But then the passion flares again

     C                  F        G          Em

And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much

    Am                  D        G   

And I have to close my eyes and hide

     C                  F          G                   Em

I wanna hold you til I die Til we both break down and cry

    Dm                     G              C           

I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
