Lyrics

Light Touch

I'm reckless and hasty
I make decisions when I'm ready
But I'm not too many distractions
And simplicity is action

Don't you know I'm here for the good stuff?
Conversation and real love
I'm not here for free booze
I just want the right to choose for myself

'Cause the light touches often is strongest
The light touches often is strongest
The light touches often is strongest gesture of all, all

Hold on to your good friends
Hold on to your lovers
And hold on to the pure hearts
Take care of your child, don't you know?

The light touches often is strongest
The light touches often is strongest
The light touches often is strongest gesture of all
