I need to know Can I touch you? No, not in that way I just need to feel your skin Before I begin to lose touch with the everyday I need to know That you are not just an illusion That you have a heart and it’s beating And I am not alone in this delusion I sent my message in a rhythm that transcended three dimensional space I opened up a door to confusion And I’ve been trapped in this lonely lonely place But now you’re here And is it true I need to know so I must ask Can I touch you? Can I touch you? Can I touch you? Oh please can I touch you? Because I need to know That you’re really here And you won’t go There were others here before Beguiling smiling strangers I heard their words became confused And forgot about the dangers They scratched my heart but I closed the door Before they tore me apart I nailed up a facade of exclusion thought my message would go floating Forever lost in the space of whispering diffusion but now you’re here And is it true I need to know so I must ask Can I touch you? Can I touch you? Can I touch you? Oh please can I touch you? Because I need to know That you’re really here And you won’t go
