The Touch She Has - Blues Traveler

She got eyes

Like emeralds shine

A tenderness within

And all she wanted me to know

Was only to begin

And I was helpless to respond

Such a brilliant inner light

My bearing had been born and gone

Though I tried with all my might

I gave my heart so freely

As if to give a child a gun

I saw at once when it went off

Precisely what I’d done

Just so gingerly

Fingers trace what they want to taste

Fingers set me free

But not by the touch she has

On me

Tumble down her tower

Then she tore my heart away

Wreckage at the rubble

Fallen folly from the fray

Save for just a warning

I repeat it line by line

Your heart it hasn’t learned a thing

You’re gonna break it every time

Just so gingerly

Fingers trace what they want to taste

Fingers set me free

But not by the touch she has

On me

But always I’ll remember

When first she looked at me

Be careful when the emerald shines

Or you’ll lose your will to see

Just so gingerly

Fingers trace what they want to taste

Fingers set me free

But not by the touch she has

On me

Just so gingerly

Fingers trace what they want to taste

Fingers set me free

But not by the touch she has

On me
