Touch Me Tonight

Shooting Star

#67 in 1989 (U.S. Billboard Chart)



Oo-oo-oo Oo oo Oo-oo

Oo-oo-oo-oo Oo



I'm on fire with somebody

Well I just can't believe it's you again

All those lies and they're hurting

It's taking time for all those scars to mend



Girl, since you left me

It's been a long time…a long time

We'll lay it on the line



If you'll just touch me tonight

And give me one more chance to make it right

Baby touch me tonight

If you feel the love in your heart

Then touch me tonight



Oo-oo-oo Oo oo Oo-oo

Oo-oo-oo-oo Oo



Let it out don't take it

With all those words are just in the past

Give it time we can make it

‘Cause only truth can ever make it last



No, don't be afraid

You've got to hold on…hold on

We know the feeling is strong



So won't you touch me tonight?

And give me one more chance to make it right

Baby touch me tonight

If you feel the love in your heart

Then touch me tonight



When it burns itself into that southern sky

There's a voice whispering in my ear

Tonight's gonna be the night



(lead break)



On the street no one's turning

And I've been fighting a losing fight

In the heat something's burning

I need somebody who can make it right



You…you got it all

And if you want to see it through

I won't go far from you



If you'll just touch me tonight

Well it ain't easy

Touch me tonight

Baby…Oh, you've got to touch me tonight

Touch me tonight and it'll be all right

Touch me tonight

If you feel the love in your heart

Then touch me tonight



Oo-oo-oo Oo oo Oo-oo

Oo-oo-oo-oo Oo

Oo-oo-oo Oo oo Oo-oo

Oo-oo-oo-oo Oo
