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

And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning
To see the real you, oh

But 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 singer
Still trapped within my truth
I'm a hesitant prizefighter
Still trapped within my youth

But oh, sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
Oh, and I have to close my eyes and hide

I, I, I wanna hold you 'til I die
Until we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you
'Til the fear in me subsides

Oh, I wanna hold you 'til I die
Until we both break down and cry
And I have to close my eyes and hide

Oh, I wanna hold you 'til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you
'Til the fear in me subsides
Oh, sing a song

Hold you 'til I die
Both break down and cry (mmm)
Oh, and I have to close my eyes and hide

Oh, I wanna hold you 'til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you
'Til the fear in me subsides

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Oh-ah-ah, oh-ah-ah

Oh, I wanna hold you 'til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
