You and me we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
In the end what you 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 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 uthink 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 pain
Without losin` the love that remains
We`re all riders on this train
So you been broken and you been hurt
Show me soomebody who ain`t
Yeah I know I ain`t nobody`s bargain
But hell a little touchup
And a little 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...
