Lyrics

I Miss Touch

I don't miss the morning traffic, waiting for a breakfast taco twenty deep
Don't worry much about the money, but nowadays I can't seem to fall asleep
Maybe it is a cliché, but things have a way or working out, I know
We'll just keep on keepin' on, at some point this all will go

But I miss ...
Shaking hands to say hello
Fist bumps when we score a goal
Saturday night my friends
Sunday back to church again
Holding hands at nursing homes
Telling them they're not alone
I don't miss the other things that much
But I miss touch ... I miss touch

Never liked the airport lines, shoulder to shoulder at the gate
Big crowds at the DMV with at least a two hour wait
Don't miss standing in a checkout line, going to the giant shopping mall
Crowded buses going to the tourist traps packed wall to wall

But I miss ...
Holding hands to say grace
Giving friends a warm embrace
High fives when the crowd goes wild
Giving big hugs to a child
Going to the country fair
Tussling my nephew's hair
I don't miss the other things that much
But I miss touch - I miss touch

I miss candlelight at Valentines
Easter eggs that children find
Fireworks bursting July 4th
Trick or treaters at my door
Having a Thanksgiving feast
Helping those that have the least
Family round the Christmas tree
Hugs and kisses New Year's Eve

I miss touch ... oh, how I miss touch ...
