Sometimes when We Touch

Barry Manilow

Transposer:

intro Verse 1 You ask me if I love you and I choke on my reply. I’d rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie And who am I to judge you on what you say or do I’m only just beginning to see the real you. Chorus And sometimes when we touch. The honesty’s too much And I have to close my eyes and hide. I wanna hold you till I die till we both break down and cry. I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides. Verse2 Romance in all its strategy has me battling with my pride But though the insecurity some tenderness survies Im just another writer still trapped with in my truths A hesitant prize fighter still trapped with in my youth. Chorus And sometimes when we touch the honesty’s too much and I have to close my eyes and hide I wanna hold you till I die till we both breakdown and cry I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides Bridge At times Id like to hold you and drive you to your knees at times Id like to break through and hold you endlessly at times I understand you and I know how hard you try Ive watched while love commands you and Ive watched love pass you by At times I think were drifters still searching for a friend a brother or a sister but then the passion flares again. Repeat Chorus. I hope you enjoy this wonderfully crafted song.

Cette chanson évoque les complexités des relations amoureuses, où l'honnêteté devient parfois écrasante. Le protagoniste lutte avec ses émotions, préférant affronter la vérité plutôt que de mentir, même si cela entraîne douleur et vulnérabilité. Dans des moments d’intimité, il ressent une connexion profonde, mélangée à la peur et à l’incertitude, ce qui le pousse à se protéger en fermant les yeux sur l’intensité des sentiments. Le texte explore également les défis du romantisme, où la fierté et les blessures du passé entravent parfois l’expression des sentiments. Malgré les doutes, il y a un désir sincère de proximité et de compréhension. À travers ces luttes intérieures, il se rend compte que l'amour peut être à la fois un soutien et une source d'angoisse, mais il est toujours là, prêt à accueillir cette passion tumultueuse.
