IF ONLY I COULD TOUCH YOU                           Download Lyrics    Download MP3



Words and music by Gwynn Torres and Sid Berger

VERSE: My rooms are full of empty space,
The hours go by at an endless pace,
And I think I hear your voice so near,
But, I know, baby, you’re not here.

VERSE: I wander round, do this and that,
Cup of coffee, pet the cat.
I do my best to work for just a while,
And inch by inch, I walk a mile.

CHORUS: If only I could touch you, just like so long ago.
If only I could touch you, I’d never let you go.

VERSE: Your eyes meet mine but it’s like a game,
As though we see through a picture frame.
Our love is held tight against the tide,
Is it safe enough to stand the ride?

CHORUS: If only I could touch you, just like so long ago.
If only I could touch you, I’d never let you go.

BRIDGE: We tell ourselves that pain can make us grow,
But all I’ve learned is what I’ve always known,
That no one really wants to walk alone.
No….. No one really wants to walk alone.

CHORUS: If only I could touch you, just like so long ago.
If only I could touch you, I’d never let you go.

VERSE: You are the calm in every storm,
With every chill you make me warm,
And though you seem so lost to me,
My heart believes in what’s to be

CHORUS: If only I could touch you, just like so long ago.
If only I could touch you, I’d never let you go.

REPEAT CHORUS
