Without touching me
I feel the ground beneath my feet
Without rushing me
I will remember to believe
That there's a soft place to land
In your heart
Without hurting me
I feel the strength of your desire
Without turning me
I'm walking on with a little fire
To light my way
And keep me warm in the dark
And I'm getting stronger
I'll hold a little longer
Till the smoke clears
And the fresh air nears
And I can see
If you'll still be there
Without holding me
I'm running into my life
Without folding me
Without being your wife
I feel lifted
By the gift you give me now
And you have got no real reason
To wait for me in the end
Except that you've got human nature
In your hands and on the mend
And I've got two years to come home to
My own kitchen and front door
And maybe someday you'll come knocking
To make love not war
