Dan Hill - Sometimes When We Touch
D G/D A/D D
You ask me if I love you and I choke on my reply
F#m Bm E A
I'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
Em7 A7 D A/C# Bm Bm7/A
And who am I to judge you on what you say or do
G D/F# Em D/F# A
I'm only just beginnin' to see the real you
D G A F#m
* And sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much
Bm E A G F#m Em
And I have to close my eyes and hide
D G A F#m
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
Em G/A D
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
D G/D A/D D
Romance and all its strategy leaves me battlin' with my pride
F#m Bm E A
But through the insecurity some tenderness survives
Em7 A7 D A/C# Bm Bm7/A
I'm just another writer, still trapped within my truth
G D/F# Em D/F# A
A hesitant prize fighter, still trapped within my youth *
G/A Dmaj7
At times I'd like to break you and drive you to your knees
Bm F#m G G/A
At times I'd like to break through and hold you endlessly
D G/D A/D D
At times I understand you and I know how hard you've tried
F#m Bm E A
And I've watch while love commands you and I've watched love pass you by
Em7 A7 D A/C# Bm Bm7/A
At times I think we're drifters, still searchin' for a friend
G D/F# Em D/F# A
A brother or a sister but then the passion flares again *
