Your Touches

Your touches are subtle enough to make my heart race 
They draw me closer to you, I get lost in your embrace 
An eternal fire is burning way down deep inside 
If only in your arms, I could crawl into and hide 

To hear your heart beat deep inside your chest 
You are my safe foundation of happiness and rest 
The joy you bring me when your sweet face is near 
Allowing all my fear, worries, and troubles to disappear 

Worth more to me than anything, my most precious desire 
When I'm with you, nothing can get me any higher 
Your touches are welcome, they're all that I need 
When you're not near me, my heart so does bleed 

Leaving me hopeless, my world turns upside down 
I'm heartbroken and lonely when you aren't around
