"She's Soft To The Touch (But Hard To Hold)" lyrics

Look at her, standing there
Big blues eyes and long blonde hair
She's the kind a man dreams of
Oh, but she's not ready for love
So don't try to make her your own
'Cause no one can keep her for long

She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold
She's young and she's free and she's out on her own
She's trying her wings so you best let her go
Or she'll break your heart I know
She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold

Oh, I guess she's not to blame
But to her it's only a game
She's a child, she'll change her mind
Like a bird, she's learning to fly
And just when you think that she'll stay
You'll reach out and she'll slip away

She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold
She's young and she's free and she's out on her own
She's trying her wings so you best let her go
Or she'll break your heart I know
She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold

Maybe someday when she's older
She'll gonna settle down
Someday somebody will hold her
And she'll love somehow, oh but for now

She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold
She's young and she's free and she's out on her own
She's trying her wings so you best let her go
Or she'll break your heart I know
She's soft to touch but she's hard to hold
