About Sometimes When We Touch

How did this song get written? Well, the Sometimes When We Touch Songfacts says: Dan Hill was 19 years old and living in a Canadian suburb, rather naive about girls. Surprise, he had landed a 22-year old girlfriend, but he was having trouble keeping up with her - she was already looking to other men. So he decided that his songwriting skill would win the day, and he wrote this ballad with the intention of "blowing her away." He then called her on the phone and sang the song he'd written for her over the phone. .

Sometimes When We Touch Lyrics

[00:12.36] You ask me if I love you
[00:16.72] And I choke on my reply
[00:20.97] I'd rather hurt you honestly
[00:24.82] Than mislead you with a lie
[00:28.96] And who am I to judge you
[00:33.01] On what you say or do?
[00:37.07] I'm only just beginning to see the real you
[00:44.00]
[00:47.03] And sometimes when we touch
[00:51.26] The honesty's too much
[00:55.16] And I have to close my eyes and hide
[00:59.95]
[01:02.91] I wanna hold you 'til I die
[01:06.90] 'Til we both break down and cry
[01:11.13] I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
[01:18.71]
[01:22.62] Romance and all its strategy
[01:27.67] Leaves me battling with my pride
[01:31.62] But through the insecurity
[01:35.63] Some tenderness survives
[01:39.74] I'm just another writer
[01:43.93] Still trapped within my truth
[01:48.09] A hesitant prize fighter
[01:51.99] Still trapped within my youth
[01:58.29] And sometimes when we touch
[02:02.06] The honesty's too much
[02:05.96] And I have to close my eyes and hide
[02:13.63] I wanna hold you 'til I die
[02:17.84] 'Til we both break down and cry
[02:21.94] I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
[02:30.32] At times I'd like to break you
[02:33.98] And drive you to your knees
[02:38.19] At times I'd like to break through
[02:42.20] And hold you endlessly
[02:48.34] At times I understand you
[02:52.50] And I know how hard you've tried
[02:56.77] I've watched while love commands you
[03:00.46] And I've watched love pass you by
[03:04.97] At times I think we're drifters
[03:08.77] Still searching for a friend
[03:12.93] A brother or a sister
[03:16.70] But then the passion flares again
[03:23.33] And sometimes when we touch
[03:27.20] The honesty's too much
[03:31.32] And I have to close my eyes and hide
[03:39.13] I wanna hold you 'til I die
[03:43.24] 'Til we both break down and cry
[03:46.94] I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
[03:52.07]
