TOUCH

Sharpen your senses…

If you use your senses

you can go anywhere:

A memory, a dream

a kiss that colored my flesh scarlet

If you use your senses

you can be anything:

A normal boy in the world with nothing to fear

who got out

who made it out of his forest of thorns

And when I touch you

I am that boy

and you are that boy

Here in this room, in this back alley

the two of us, half a person, can be one

You and I

Will you use your senses

enfold me in sultry heat

warm my ravaged bones

But remember me only by the sun's hopeful touch

And if you use your senses

You'll find me

in the mountains -- in the stars

You'll find me

you'll find me
