Human Touch

You and me we were the pretenders
we let it all slip away
in the end what you dont 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 blessings my darlin'
but i got a deal for you right here

i aint looking for prayers or pity
i aint coming round searchin' for a crutch
i just want someone to talk to
and a lil' of that human touch
just a lil' of that human touch

aint no mercy on the streets of this town
aint no bread from heavenly skies
aint nobody drawin' wine from this blood
its just you and me tonight

tell me in a world without pity
do you think that what im askin's too much
i just want something to hold on to
and a lil' of that human touch
just a lil' of that human touch

oh girl that feelin' of safety you prize
well it comes with a hard price
you cant 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 aint
yeah i know i aint nobody's bargain
but hell a lil' touch up
and a lil' paint

you might need something to hold on to
when all the answers they dont amount to much
somebody that you just can talk to
and a lil' of that human touch

baby in a world without pity
do you think what im askin's too much?
i jut want to feel you in my arms
and share a lil' of that human touch....
