Dan Hill - "Sometimes When We Touch."

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you 'til I die
Until we both break down and cry
I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you 'til I die
Until we both break down and cry
I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly

At times I understand you
And I know how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by

At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you 'til I die
Until we both break down and cry
I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides.

David Essex - "A Winter's Tale."

The nights are colder now
Maybe I should close the door
And anyway the snow has covered all your footsteps
And I can follow you no more.

The fire still burns at night,
My memories are warm and clear;
But everybody knows it's hard to be alone
At this time of year.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It was a love that could never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale

While I stand alone
A bell is ringing far away
I wonder if you hear, I wonder if you're listening
I wonder where you are today.

Good luck! I wish you well,
And for all that wishes may be worth;
I hope that love and strength
Are with you for the length of your time on earth.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It's a love that can never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It's a love that can never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale.
