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, aint no kindness in the face of strangers Aint gonna find no miracles here Well you can wait on your blesses my darling I got a deal for you right here I aint looking for praise or pity I aint coming round searching for a crutch I just want someone to talk to And a little of that human touch Just a little of that human touch
Aint no mercy on the streets of this town Aint no bread from heavenly skies Aint nobody drawing wine from this blood Its just you and me tonight Tell me, in a world without pity Do you think what Im askins 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 that you prize Well it comes at a hard hard price You can't shut off the risk and the pain Without losing the love that remains Were all riders on this train
So youve been broken and youve been hurt Show me somebody who aint Yeah, I know I aint nobodys bargain But, hell, a little touch up and a little paint... You might need something to hold on to When all the answers, they don't amount to much Somebody that you could just to talk to And a little of that human touch Baby, in a world without pity Do you think what Im askins too much I just want to feel you in my arms Share a little of that human touch Feel a little of that human touch Give me a little of that human touch
