| This old world can lay so heavy on my shoulders…
|
| And this face in my mirror keeps getting older
|
| But no matter how much pressure’s on I can lay it down when I get home
|
| 'Cause it all just fades away when I touch you
|
| It’s the kind of love
|
| That lingers through the ages
|
| A firm foundation, girl, to see us through
|
| So let the storms of life go right on ragin'
|
| For there’s calm inside my heart when I touch you
|
| Years from now when my life’s nearly over
|
| And there’s nothing more this world needs me to do
|
| If my feeble hand’s still strong enough to reach out
|
| I can be the happy man when I touch you
|
| It’s the kind of love
|
| That lingers through the ages
|
| Oh, a firm foundation, girl, to see us through…
|
| So let the storms of life go right on ragin'…
|
| For there’s calm inside my heart when I touch you…
|
| Yes, it makes everything alright when I touch you… |
