TOUCH YET NEVER FEEL (Robert J. Purvis)


Looking back, was it all a dream?

Touch yet never feel


We sometimes touch yet never feel

It wasn't like that from the start

So many things which were together are now so far apart


Share a life yet never live (share a life yet never live)

Accepting things we feel are wrong (you know the feeling)

There was a time we'd talk it over in the past

Those times have gone


I can remember when we didn't give a damn about anything except our love

It didn't take as long to let it all go wrong


Looking back, was it all a dream?

Touch yet never feel


[saxophone solo]


I can remember when we didn't give a damn about anything except our love

It didn't take as long to let it all go wrong


Looking back, was it all a dream?

Touch yet never feel


You play the game yet never win (play the game yet never win)

You make believe it's all so real (you make believe it)

The love we had slipped through our fingers

We touch yet never feel


We touch yet never feel

We touch yet never feel

We touch yet never feel.
