Lover's Touch
Tom Petty · Mojo [2010]
She give me chills and fever
Sends a signal
To my receiver
Hard livin' killing me
I need that woman to set me free
And I want her
I want her so much
Cause she got the lover's touch
Feel sold out
Water gettin' higher
Livin' on the shoreline
Starin' at the fire
And I want her
I want her so much
Cause she got the lover's touch
I hear her voice
When I'm all alone
Gives me comfort
So soft and low
And I want her
I want her so much
Cause she got the lover's touch
