You asked me if I loved you and I choked on my reply
I'll rather hurt you honestly then 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

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 wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity, some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer still trapped within my truths
A hesistant prizefighter still trapped within my youth

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 wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you and drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through and hold you endlessly

At times I understand you, and I know how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you, and I've watched love pass you by
And times I think we're drifters, still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister, but then the passion flares again

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 wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

ps: Something I found interesting in this song. Listen. Its a slow song though.
