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 Who am I to judge you on what you say or do I'm only just beginning to see the real you Sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I wanna hold you 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I wanna 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 truths And your hesitant prize fighter trapped within my youth Sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I wanna hold you 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides 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 And at times I think were drifters Searching for a friend, a brother, or a sister But then the passion flares again Sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I wanna hold you 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
