Man feels hurt over a failed, hopeful relationship
acapella
We're an eclectic group of winos and scofflaws just rolling with the flow.
Story behind the song
Internet romance falls apart
acapella
Lyrics
I Never Even Touched You
© Ben Burton June 22, 2007
V1
Yesterday rolled round again this morning
The nightmare so long feared, lying by my side
Got up in the clothes I was born in
Lost somewhere in the night, while looking for my pride
(Through all the wasted time)
CHORUS
I never even touched you
Only fools fall in love, sight unseen
You fooled me with your words on my computer screen
Always in my head, but only in his bed
Now your email says we're through
And I never even touched you
V2
I knew that you were only separated
But eighteen months apart, thought you'd divorce him soon
Now you say you're gonna have his baby
Hard to cheat, it's true, with a guy you're married to
(There's nothing I can do)
I never even touched you
Only fools fall in love, sight unseen
You fooled me with your words on my computer screen
Always in my head, but only in his bed
Now your email says we're through
And I never even touched you
BRIDGE
The meeting I'd been hoping for
Will never come to pass
Unless someone records that song we wrote
A romance that I should have known
Didn't have a chance
Has ended as I write this final note
(With a heart that's broke)
I never even touched you
Only fools fall in love, sight unseen
You fooled me with your words on my computer screen
Always in my head, but only in his bed
Now your email says we're through
And I never even touched you
TAG
So here's a final lyric, have you got a good blues tune?
Now that it's over and I never even touched you
