You and me, we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
In the end, what you don't surrender
Well, the world just strips away

Ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain't gonna find no miracles here
Well, you can wait on your blessings, but darlin'
I got a deal for you right here

I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity
I ain't comin' round searchin' for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And a little of that human touch

Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town
Ain't no bread from heavenly skies
Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood
It's just you and me tonight

Tell me, in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm asking for's too much?
I just want something to hold on to
And a little of that human touch
Just a little of that human touch

That feeling of safety you prize
Well, it comes with a hard hard price
You can't shut off the risk and the pain
Without losin' the love that remains
Cause we're all riders on this train

So you've been broken and you've been hurt
Show me somebody who ain't
Yeah, I know I ain't nobody's bargain
But hell, a little touch-up and a little paint

You might need somethin' to hold on to
All the answers don't amount to much
Somebody you can just talk to
And a little of that human touch

Tell me, in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm asking for's too much?
I just want to feel you in my arms
And share a little of that human touch
Feel a little of that human touch
Give a little of that human touch
