Touch Me Again - Aliza
If you touch me again
You said you needed breathing
So I gave you all this space
Now I'm talking to the ceiling
Just to hear your name
Your side of the bed still pulled
Sheets folded like you'll come home
Every echo in this room sounds like your ringtone
If you touch me again
I'll forget how you left
My hands will forgive you
Before my head can protest
If you touch me again
I'll believe every word you never said
So don't stand so close
If you touch me again
I'll let you in
You appear in every doorway
Like a habit I can't shake
You say I didn't mean to hurt you
But you already did that twice today
You trace circles on my shoulder
Like you never took your love away
How am I supposed to heal
When you keep pressing where it breaks
If you touch me again
I'll forget how you left
My hands will forgive you
Before my head can protest
If you touch me again
I'll believe every word you never said
So don't stand so close
If you touch me again
I'll let you in
I change the sheets but I still wake up reaching
I change my plans, still end up where we began
You whisper I miss you and my whole body answers
While every scar I carry screams you're a disaster
If you touch me again
I'll forget how you left
My hands will forgive you
Before my head can protest
If you touch me again
I'll believe every word you never said
So don't stand so close
If you touch me again
I'll let you in
I'll let you in
You're standing in my doorway
Silence hanging in the air
One more step and I'll surrender
So I'll just stay in this chair
If you touch me again
I know how this will end
So I'm begging you, pretending you're already gone again
