Bruce Springsteen - Human Touch Lyrics

You and me we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
In the end what don�t surrender
Well the world just strips away

Girl ain�t no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain�t gonna find no miracles here
Well you can wait on your blessings my darlin�
But I got a deal for you right here

I ain�t lookin� for prayers or pity
I ain�t comin� �round searchin� for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And a little of that human touch
Just a little of that human touch

Ain�t no mercy on the streets of this town
Ain�t no bread from heavenly skies
Ain�t nobody drawin� wine from this blood
It�s just you and me tonight

Tell me in a world without pity
Do you think what I�m askin�s too much ?
I just want something to hold on to
And a little of that human touch
Just a little of that human touch

Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
Well it comes with a hard hard price
You can�t shut off the risk and the pain
Without losin� the love that remains
We�re all riders on this train

So you been broken and you been hurt
Show me somebody who ain�t
Yeah I know I ain�t nobody�s bargain
But hell a little touchup
And a litte paint...

You might need somethin� to hold on to
When all the answers they don�t amount to much
Somebody that you can just talk to
And a little of that human touch

Baby in a world without pity
Do you think what I�m askin�s too much ?
I just want to feel you in my arms
And share a little of that human touch...
