This old world can lay so heavy, on my shoulders And this face in my mirror, keeps getting older But no matter how much pressures on I can lay it down, when I get home 'Cause it all just fades away, when I touch you It's the kind of love that lingers through the ages A firm foundation built to see us through So let the storms of life go right on ragin' For there's calm inside my heart, when I touch you Years from now, when my life is nearly over And there's nothing more this world needs me to do If my feeble hands still strong enough to reach out I can live a happy man when I touch you It's the kind of love that lingers through the ages On a firm foundation built to see us through So let the storms of life go right on ragin' For there's calm inside my heart, when I touch you Yes, it makes everything alright, when I touch you
