Beth Orton Touch Me With Your Love lyrics

Put your loving on a slow burner
If you want to keep your loving warmer
Put your loving on a slow simmer
If it helps to keep the light from growing dimmer

Hold on, hold out
You're still thrown against a wall
Never looking to be picked up or left alone to fall

Can you touch me with your love?
Would I feel it if I trust enough?
Could it almost be a lust for life?
Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight?

You can put it on a coal burner
Deception never kept you any warmer
Truth is cooking on a slow simmer
A light still strong even when it is dimmer

Hold on, hold out
You've got thrown against a wall
Never wanted to be picked up or left alone to fall


Can you touch me with your love?
Would I feel it if I trust enough?
Could it almost be a lust for life?
Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight?

Troubled waters locked far down below
Will have to find another home to go
If the truth in my heart gets put aside
Just let me go and then wait for the next time

Hold on, hold out
I've got thrown against that wall
But I'm looking to be picked up and left alone to fall

Then it touched me just like love
Still feel it when I trust enough
Could almost be a lust for life
I could feel it though I'd not known it by sight
I could feel it and I know it's all right
I could feel it and I know it's all right, it's all right
