TOUCH ME ...
PLACES NO ONE HAS
TOUCHED BEFORE,
IN SILENT PLACES WHERE WORDS
ONLY INTERFERE,
IN SAD AND LONELY PLACES
WHERE WHISPERING IS ALL THAT'S NEEDED...
TOUCH ME...
IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE,
WHERE A LOOK SAYS IT ALL
YEARNING IN YOUR EYES FOR ME ALONE TO SEE.
IN SOLITUDE, WHEN IT'S TOO DARK TO SEE,
WHEN YOUR GONE, WHEN I REACH FOR YOU
THROUGH TIME...
TOUCH ME...
WHEN I ASK.
TOUCH ME...
WHEN I AM TO SHY TO ASK.
TOUCH ME..
WITH YOUR LIPS, YOUR HANDS, YOUR HEART, YOUR SOUL
WITH YOUR VERY SPIRIT.
TOUCH ME..
IN THE MORNING,
WHILE I STILL CLING TO DREAMS OF YOU
IN THE AFTERNOON,
WHEN EVERYTHING AROUND ME IS FILLED WITH CHAOS.
IN THE EVENING,
WHEN I RECOGNIZE WHO I AM
IN THE NIGHT,
WHILE YOU ARE NEAR, AND I MAY TOUCH YOU IN RETURN.
TOUCH ME...
LIKE A CHILD WHO NEVER HAD ENOUGH LOVE,
FOR I NEED TO BE LOST IN YOUR ARMS,
AS I AM SOMEONE WHO HAS KNOWN GREAT PAIN,
ENOUGH PAIN FOR ME TO GIVE REAL LOVE IN RETURN.
TOUCH ME...
EVEN WHEN I AM NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO GIVE..
AS THAT IS WHEN,
I NEED YOUR TOUCH THE MOST.
TOUCH ME..
GENTLY... AS I AM FRAGILE
FIRMLY... AS I AM SOMETIMES STRONG
OFTEN... AS AT TIMES, I FEEL SO ALONE
BUT, ABOVE ALL,
TOUCH ME...
TOUCH ME...
TOUCH ME...
AS I TOUCH YOU...
SOARING HEART

WRITEN FOR MY SILVERWOLF,
ON THIS, OUR SECOND ANNIVERSARY
OF THAT FATEFULL DAY,
WHEN THOSE ELEVATOR DOORS OPENED
AND HE SAID
" HELLO JOANIE,I'M JOHN"
I LOVE YOU DARLING! |
