• Here, when I say I never want to be without you,
  somewhere else I am saying
  I never want to be without you again. And when I touch you
  in each of the places we meet,
  
  in all of the lives we are, it's with hands that are dying
  and resurrected.
  When I don't touch you it's a mistake in any life,
  in each place and forever
