Lyrics Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss

Let Me Touch You For a While

It's been a long time coming

As you shed a lonesome tear

And now you're in a wonderama

I wonder what you're doing here

The flame no longer flickers

You're feeling just like a fool

You keep staring into your liquor

Wondering what to do

I don't hardly know you

But I'd be willing to show you

I know a way to make you smile

Let me touch you for a while

I'm gonna ruin my black mascara

You're drinking whisky when it should be wine

You keep looking into that mirror

But to me you're looking really fine

I don't hardly know you

But I'd be willing to show you

I know a way to make you

Laugh at that cowgirl as she's walking out your door

I know a way to make you smile

Just let me whisper things you've never heard before

Just let me touch you, baby

Just let me touch you for a while

I don't hardly know you

But I'd be willing to show you

I know a way to make you smile

It's been a long time

Let me touch you for a while
