sometimes when we touch / after all (medley)

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

and sometimes when we touch

the honesty's too much

and i have to close my eyes and hide

i wanna hold you till i die

till we both break down and cry

i want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

romance and all it's strategy leaves me battling with my pride

but through the insecurity some tenderness survives

i'm just another writer

still trapped within my truths

a hesitant prize fighter

still trapped within my youth

and sometimes when we touch

the honesty's too much

and i have to close my eyes and hide

i wanna hold you till i die

till we both break down and cry

i want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

well

here we are again

i guess it must be fate

we've tried it on our own

but deep inside we've known

we'd be back to set things straight

i still remember when

your kiss was so brand new

every memory repeats

every step i take retreats

every journey always brings me back to you

after all the stops and starts

we keep coming back to these two hearts

two angels who've been rescued from the fall. after all that we've been through

it all comes down to me and you. i guess it's meant to be

forever you and me

after all. at times i'd like to break you and drag you to your knees

at times i'd like to break through and hold you endlessly

at times i understand you

and i know how hard you've tried

i've watched while love commands you

and i've watched love pass you by

at times i think we're drifters

still searching for a friend

a brother or a sister

but then the passion flares again

and after all the stops and starts

we keep coming back to these two hearts

two angels who've been rescued from the fall. after all that we've been through

it all comes down to me and you. i guess it's meant to be

forever you and me. now that sometimes when we touch

the honesty's too much

and i have to close my eyes and hide

i wanna hold you till i die

till we both break down and cry

i wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
