A Version In Five Senses

I want phone calls and grizzly bear hugs,
human touch not a face on a screen;
Just one person to caress my skin, 
remind me that there is still a ‘Real’;

Human touch not a face on a screen,
the heartache inside of me may ease;
Remind me that there is still a ‘Real’,
a version of life with five senses;

The heartache inside of me may ease,
some kindred spirits are so far away;
A version of life with five senses,
imagine what we could do with that;

Some kindred spirits are so far away,
it’s callous when that’s all that I want;
Imagine what we could do with that
natural high that overwhelms us;

It’s callous when that’s all that I want,
just one person to caress my skin;
Natural high that overwhelms us,
I want phone calls and grizzly bear hugs.
