"Touch" lyrics

What if I would've said something?
What if I would've been there, man?
Seems you can always look back
But you can't touch

Don't look so alone
I'm combing over the silks I've sown, come home
'Cause I'm watering the roots and I'm burying the seeds
And yeah, you know what's good for them is good for me

Don't look so ashamed
Like a sick old dog on a phantom chain, hold on
It's not for cost, it's not for free
We make communication feel like a disease

Can't take it, I, I can't take it
You're much further than I could throw
Your warm slippers and your can of cola
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
But you can't touch

Don't scare easy, don't jump
This is the last time I'll ever cry so hard
'Cause I'm watering the roots and I'm burying the seeds
And yeah, you know what's good for them is good for me

I can't take it, I, I can't take it
You're much further than I could throw
Your warm slippers and your can of cola
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
But you can't touch

I can't take it, I, I can't take it
You're much further than I could throw
Your warm slippers and your can of cola
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
Seems you can always look back
But you can't touch
