Lyrics Manilla Road

Manilla Road

No Touch

Just apart of me afraid to call my own

Locked inside these barren walls - my heart

When she appeared I knew the meaning of emotion

But I don't remember feeling

Another part of me I need to call my own

Turns to face this precious sight - my hope

And then she said to me

I wonder why you see me like you do

Such an innocent child

Like Alice trapped in her looking glass

She is my agony my sorrow

Someone to follow through the rain

No touch no feeling of life

And here I am believing what she tells me

She's just a shadow on the pane

As the master of illusion I can't go on

Breathing life into the picture on the wall

But when she sings I hear the happiness of angels

I close my eyes

And when I look again no ones there at all

She is my agony my sorrow

Someone to follow through the rain

No touch no feeling of life

And here I am believing what she tells me

She's just a shadow on the pane

And when she came to me again

Out from the wall

She showed me her disease

It's closer now

And when she spoke to me again

She speaks in whispers only

She wanted more of me

She opened all the windows

I took her hand and I threw my mind away

Just for a moment I knew love
