You've never met a liar You've only met the lie that they put forth There ain't no soul more lonely Until you tell the truth you can't be touched And I wanna be touched I wanna be touched Only the lover sings Only the one who dares to Look you full-on in the face Finds out the shocking good news I learned a terrible habit I speed away when the red light says to stay And when the green light's flashing I go to sleep to keep the light at bay But I wanna wake up Only the lover sings Only the one who dares to Look you full-on in the face Finds out the shocking good news What will you find if you look into those eyes? It's hard to believe But maybe you're in for a surprise I feel a new song coming Swinging like a blade that cuts through fear I don't owe jack to confusion Now love has come and made himself so clear And I wanna trust I wanna be touched I wanna wake up I wanna trust Only the lover sings Only the one who dares to Look you full-on in the face Finds out the shocking good news
