Sometimes When We Touch (feat. Dan Hill)

Preview Full Track

Lyricist: Dan Hill     Composer: Barry Mann


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 the fear in me subsides.

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride;
But through the insecurity
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 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 the fear in me subsides.

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've tried;
I've watched 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.

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 the fear in me subsides.
