When We Touch

When We Touch

I'm an old hound dog with a checkered past
lived life to hard and way to fast.
You don't believe me when I say I'll settle down
went looking for love it was you I found.
If you'd give me half a chance I'd toe the line
leave my wicked ways all far behind.

Pretty flowers and poems on bended knee
don't seem change what you think of me.
A rambler and a gambler and a son of a gun
who'd say anything just to have some fun.
Well I'm betting on love let the heart chips fall
win or lose I'm betting it all.

(chorus)
We're thunder and lighting when we touch
feels so good but it hurts so much.
There ain't no glory in love if there ain't no guts
we're thunder and lighting when we touch.

You think that I'm just romancing you
leave you someday heart broke and blue.
Whisper sweet nothings your my buttercup
walk away crowing when your all used up.
I'm a different man set your mind at ease
our love is deeper than the seven seas.

Yesterday is gone we're gonna paint it black
there ain't no need in looking back.
You know a sunny day needs a starry night
when meet in the middle oh what delight.
Now there come's a time you gotta fold or call
win or lose I'm betting it all.

Chorus

(bridge)
Your my lady luck my little flower child
you bet on a king drew a joker wild.
Now ain't that just the funniest thing
how you make this joker feel like a king.

Chorus
