You and me we were the pretenders
|
We let it all slip away
|
In the end what don't surrender
|
Well the world just strips away
|
|
Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
|
Ain't gonna find no miracles here
|
Well you can wait on your blessings my darlin'
|
But I got a deal for you right here
|
|
I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity
|
I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch
|
I just want someone to talk to
|
And a little of that human touch
|
Just a little of that human touch
|
|
Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town
|
Ain't no bread from heavenly skies
|
Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood
|
It's just you and me tonight
|
|
Tell me in a world without pity
|
Do you think what I'm askin's too much ?
|
I just want something to hold on to
|
And a little of that human touch
|
Just a little of that human touch
|
|
Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
|
Well it comes with a hard hard price
|
You can't shut off the risk and the pain
|
Without losin' the love that remains
|
We're all riders on this train
|
|
So you been broken and you been hurt
|
Show me somebody who ain't
|
Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain
|
But hell a little touchup
|
And a litte paint...
|
|
You might need somethin' to hold on to
|
When all the answers they don't amount to much
|
Somebody that you can just talk to
|
And a little of that human touch
|
|
Baby in a world without pity
|
Do you think what I'm askin's too much ?
|
I just want to feel you in my arms
|
And share a little of that human touch...
|
