DOES HE TOUCH YOU by Richard Maxfield 2-27-99 Does he touch you The way I used to do To sleep next to him and hold him tight Does it feel good and does it feel right Does he say the things you want hear Does he chase away your all fear Does he reach out to touch your face Does his touch make your heart race Does he love you more than life its self or does he keep some on a shelf Does he long to grow old with you Would he take care and see you through Does he run his fingers through your hair Years from now will he be there Does he love every wrinkle on you face Is it home or just his place Does he gently kiss your ear are his intuitions all ways clear with each hair that turns gray is it forever or just a day would he lay down his life like I would do for my wife Will he be there when you call or to pick you up when you fall Is he worth all your trust or will your life with him be a bust Will he hold you as years pass by and kiss away the tears that you cry Life is short and so is the night make sure all you have done is right Will he love you for ever and a day or are they just words he might say What didn’t I do what didn’t I say I loved you with my all every day My heart I gave for you to keep I think of you even when I sleep
