Song Lyrics

Oh, it's the middle of the night
And I'm reaching out for you
In the darkness I can feel your touch break through
When I look into your eyes
And your skin's against my skin
I will hold you till the sun comes crashing in
Where would I be now?
Without the tenderness that you possess

The touch
The touch that makes me strong
That keeps me holding on
I come to you when times are tough
Your love is just enough
To lift me up so high
There's nothing I won't give
To be with you, to reach for you
I live, for the touch

Oh, I want to be the one you need
I need to be the one you see
I gotta justify the faith you have in me
You're the beauty in my life
You're the sun that lights my soul
You're the other half I need to make me whole
Who would I be now?
Without the warmth you bring to everything

The touch
The touch that makes me strong
That keeps me holding on
I come to you when times are tough
Your love is just enough
To lift me up so high
There's nothing I won't give
To be with you, to reach for you
I live, for the touch

All my life has been a journey here to you
Every road and river, brought me closer to the touch

The touch
The touch that makes me strong
That keeps me holding on
I come to you when times are tough
Your love is just enough
To lift me up so high
There's nothing I won't give
To be with you, to reach, to feel

The touch
The touch that makes me strong
That keeps me holding on
I come to you when times are tough
Your love is just enough
To lift me up so high
There's nothing I won't give
To be with you, to reach for you
I live, for the touch

Oh(Oh)
Oh(Oh)
Oh(Oh)
