You can't tell the truth   Not even to yourself   It hurts too much to admit that it's in there      You can lie and dissemble with anyone else   But I know you like I know myself      Touch back down will you   Put your feet on the ground and   Stay here with me   Touch back down will you   Let me look at you   As you are   Touch back down      I would love to hold you   I cannot get near you   I would love to show you      But you are shuffling sideways   You think I don't notice   That you're slipping away      Touch back down will you   Put your feet on the ground and   Stay here with me   Touch back down will you   Let me look at you   As you are   Touch back down      I have got to learn   Not to go choosing   The ones who don't choose me      I am always picking   The fruit that's furthest on the tree   It's sweetest to me      Touch back down will you   Put your feet on the ground and   Stay here with me   Touch back down will you   Let me look at you   As you are
