We let it all slip away
 In the end what you don't surrender
 Well the world just strips away

 Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
 Ain't gonna find no miracles here
 Well you can wait on your blessings darlin'
 But I got a deal for you right here

 I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity
 I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch
 I just want someone to talk to
 And a little of that human touch
 Just a little of that human touch

 Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town
 Ain't no bread from heavenly skies
 Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood
 It's just you and me tonight


 Tell me in a world without pity
 Do you uthink what I'm askin's too much?
 I just want something to hold on to
 And a little of that human touch
 Just a little of that human touch

 Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
 Well it comes with a hard hard price
 You can't shut off the risk and pain
 Without losin' the love that remains
 We're all riders on this train

 So you been broken and you been hurt
 Show me soomebody who ain't
 Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain
 But hell a little touchup
 And a little paint...

 You might need somethin' to hold on to
 When all the answers they don't amount to much
 Somebody that you can just talk to
 And a little of that human touch

 Baby in a world without pity
 Do you think what I'm askin's too much?
 I just want to feel you in my arms
 And share a little of that human touch
