let me touch you for awhile

it's been a long time coming

as you shed a lonesome tear

and now you're in a wonderama

i wonder what you're doin' here

the flame no longer flickers

you're feeling just like a fool

you keep starin' into your liquor

wonderin' what to do

i don't hardly know you

but i'd be willin' to show you

i know a way to make you smile

let me touch you for awhile

i'm gonna ruin my black mascara

you're drinkin whiskey when it should be wine

you keep a-lookin' into that mirror

but to me you're lookin' really fine

i don't hardly know you

but i'd be willin' to show you

i know a way to make you

laugh at that cowgirl as she's walkin' out your door

i know a way to make you smile

just let me whisper things

you've never heard before

just let me touch you

baby

just let me touch you for awhile

i don't hardly know you

but i'd be willin' to show you

i know a way to make you smile

it's been a long time

let me touch you for awhile
