Sometimes when we touch

The honesty's too much

(Hooooooooooooooooo)

And I have to close my eyes and hide



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 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 it’s strategy

Leaves me battling with my pride

(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 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'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 wanna hold you til I die

Til we both break down and cry

I wanna hold you 

Til the fear in me subsides



And 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



Fear in me subsides
