Sometimes When We Touch Lyrics - Rod Stewart

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 

In 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 till I die 

Till we both break down and cry 

I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Romance and all it's strategy 

Leaves me battling with my pride 

But through all 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 till I die 

Till we both break down and cry 

I want to hold you till 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 try 

I 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 ya till I die 

Till we both break down and cry 

I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides, subsides
