Lyrics
if you touch me right
Expresses the condition or possibility that if touched in a certain way
I might reconsider every pillar I lean on
Suggests a willingness to reconsider fundamental beliefs or principles
I might turn my back on love that I’ve won
Indicates a readiness to abandon previously attained love
and even my fantasy
Refers to personal dreams or desires
c’mon babe, touch me right
Encourages a partner to touch in a manner that satisfies emotionally
while my ageing heart still seeks this feeling
Describes a desire for emotional fulfillment while aging
of breaking and receiving
Seeks the experience of vulnerability and acceptance
my bow and my violin are my shield and my sword
Metaphorically represents musical instruments as protection and offense
but I could drop both of them and just listen to that chord
Expresses the willingness to abandon defense mechanisms for emotional connection
If you touch me right babe, there’s no telling what I’ll do
Highlights unpredictability when emotionally stimulated
I could turn from red into blue, I could leave my country
Suggests a radical change in personal identity or feelings
I could leave my friends, and even if I suffer
Signifies a willingness to sacrifice relationships for emotional fulfillment
I could see the story through the end
Commitment to enduring a situation until its conclusion despite hardships
If you touch me right, babe
Reiterates the importance of being touched emotionally in the right way
If you touch me right
Emphasizes the significance of proper emotional connection
I could leave my family, I could leave my son
Expresses readiness to make significant sacrifices, even family-related
and I might be a bad man, but God knows I’m not the only one
Admits to potential flaws but implies shared experiences
all you gotta do is come through every night
Requests consistent emotional reassurance
and remind me that life is so much deeper than wrong or right
Reflection on the complexity of life, transcending mere moral dichotomies
