You and me we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
But In the end what you don't surrender

Well the world just strips away
There ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain't gonna find no miracles here

Well you can wait on your blessings my darlin'
But I got a deal for you right here
I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity

I ain't comin' 'round searchin¹ for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And just a little of that human touch

Just 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 askin¹s too much?
I just want something to hold on to
And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch
Oh and 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
We're all riders on this train

So you been broken and you been hurt
Show me somebody who ain't
Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain

But hell a little touchup
And a litte paint...
You might need somethin' to hold on to

When all the answers they don't amount to much
Somebody that you can just talk to
And a little of that human touch

Baby in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm askin's too much ?
I just want to feel you in my arms

And share a little of that human touch…
