"I Want To Touch You"
written by
Karla Bonoff, Andrew Gold, Kenny Edwards & Wendy Waldman

"The song is basically a simple love song. But on a deeper level, I think it's about trying to get behind someone's psychic armour; a feeling that there's something hidden from view and the lover wants to find it. Kind of a sexual song without the sex. It's also about trying to make any human contact at all."
- Kenny Edwards

Silver moon shining through the lace
Light streaming through the window
So close I can see your face
But your heart's in the shadow
How long do I have to wait
Nothing we do's gonna make it safe
My heart just cries inside
To see love go to waste

I want to touch you
Do the dance that lovers do
Let the fire burn right through
I want to touch you I want to touch you

Time drags and I watch the clock
Just thinking about you
Feel Your breath and I hear your walk
Oh baby I'm a crazy fool
Feeling weak and feeling strong
First you're here and then you're gone
You stay just out of reach
But I know where you belong

I want to touch you...

Long nights filling up with pain
I want something I never had
You've got your love back
Behind the chain
Oh baby I want you so bad

I want to touch you...
