Things ain't like they used to be
A smile, it seldom cracks
Across your face, these days
And you say the weight of living
Drags you down
Well, it's just the same for me - you see

Though, we don't always live in harmony
And we sometimes act like we're enemies
Still, I feel the need to show you I still care

Why can't I touch you
Why can't I hold you
Why can't I reach down inside
To the feelings you hide
Why can't I touch you
Like I used to do, like I used to

Spent the day wrapped up in a blanket
Lying on my bed and feeling down
So down
And I curse the rain
And I damn this wasted time
When I can't find nothing else to do or say

Though, we don't always live in harmony
And we sometimes act like we're enemies
Still, I feel the need to show you I still care

Why can't I touch you
Why can't I hold you
Why can't I reach down inside
To the feelings you hide
Why can't I touch you
Like I used to do, like I used to

Let me try and put a smile on your face
Don't let this moment slip away
Turn the finger of blame back onto itself
Try to forgive and to forget

Though, we don't always live in harmony
And we sometimes act like we're enemies
Still, I feel the need to show you I still care

Why can't I touch you
Why can't I hold you
Why can't I reach down inside
To the feelings you hide
Why can't I touch you
Like I used to do, like I used to
