Lyrics Peter Gabriel

Peter Gabriel

I Have The Touch

1. The time I like is the rush hour, 'cause I like the rush

The pushing of the people, I like it all so much

Such a mass of motion, do not know where it goes

I move with the movement and - I have the touch

2. I'm waiting for ignition, I'm looking for a spark

Any chance collision and I light up in the dark

There you stand before me, all that fur and all that hair

Oh, do I dare - I have the touch

R1: Only, only wanting contact

I'm only, only wanting contact

I'm only, only wanting contact

With you - shake those hands, shake those hands

Give me the thing I understand

Shake those hands, shake those hands

Shake hands, shake hands

3. Any social occasion, it's hello, how do you do

All those introductions, I never miss my cue

So before a question, so before a doubt

My hand moves out and - I have the touch

R1: Only, only wanting contact...

R2: Pull my chin, stroke my hair, scratch my nose, hug my knees

Try drink, food, cigarette, tension will not ease

I tap my fingers, fold my arms, breathe in deep, cross my legs

Shrug my shoulders, stretch my back, but nothing seems to please

*: I need contact

I need contact

Nothing seems to please

I need contact

I need contact

I need contact
