A Touch
I lean over and whisper
Softly into your ear
While one hand is gently
Pulling you in near
It’s not the words here
That really mean the most
It’s the feeling of being touched
Feeling wanted, being close
Love is so much more
Than words that we speak
Yes love can empower you
But a touch can make you weak
It seems we all to often
Believe words are enough
To hold the one we cherish
So magically in love
Holding hands or a kiss
Sometimes can mean so much
Even more than words of love
A gentle, caring touch
