"Let Me Touch You For Awhile" lyrics

Alison Krauss & Union Station Lyrics

"Let Me Touch You For Awhile"

It's been a long time coming
As you shed a lonesome tear
Now you're in a wonderama
I wonder what you're doing here
The flame no longer flickers
You're feeling just like a fool
You keep staring into your liquor
Wondering what to do

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you smile
Let me touch you for awhile

I'm gonna ruin my black mascara
You're drinking whiskey when it should be wine
You keep on looking into that mirror
But to me you're looking really fine

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you laugh at that cowgirl
As she's walking out your door
I know a way to make you smile
Just let me whisper things you never heard before
Just let me touch you, baby
Just let me touch you for a while

I don't hardly know
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you smile
It's been a long time
Let me touch you for a while
