Charley Pride
"Touch My Heart"

(Johnny Paycheck - Aubrey Mayhew)

Touch my heart, feel the hurt, the pain and misery
Then tell me again what love can do for me.

If you lived in my world awhile, you'd soon forget how to smile
In my world there's a million ways to cry
If you had my eyes you could see how woman changed my destiny
I'm a man who can't live and yet can't die.

See these hands of mine and how they shake all because I can't break
The habit of remembering yesterday
Another love couldn't help this ache, I know I'd make the same mistakes
Her mem'ry's always standing in my way.

Touch my heart, feel the hurt, it's destroying me
I've tried but can't seem to shake her memory
Touch my heart, feel the hurt, the pain and misery
Then tell me again what love can do for me...
