"The Last One To Touch Me" lyrics

The Last One To Touch Me

Touch me
I want you to be
The first
The last
The only one to touch me

If there ever
Was an angel
Then surely you must be one
If there ever was
A perfect love
When I look at you
I see one

If there's heaven
Here on earth
Then this must surely be
I want you to be the last
One to touch me

The last thing
I remember
Before I go to sleep
Is the touch
Of your sweet lips
Softly kissing me

And I go to sleep
A thinking
How happy you make me
I want you to be the last
One to touch me

And when it's time
To lay me down
For my eternal sleep
Once more let your fingers
Softly touch my cheek

And if I know
That you've touched me
Then I can sleep in peace
I want you to be the last
One to touch me

And when the night has ended
And time will be no more
They say that we
Shall meet again
Upon the golden shore

And so when I awaken
From my eternal sleep
I want you to be the first
One to touch me

I want you to be
The first
The last
The only one to touch me
Touch me
