Some say the world is spinning faster Some say it isn't fast enough Some people say they've got the answer And some are scared to say they can't keep up I read the paper but it still isn't clear The bombs are falling but i'm still here I know all the figures and i know all the facts But all i can do is keep trying . . . . To look for the human touch Life is hard when you've got nothing Life can be hard when you've got too much Sometimes i wonder what's the difference It's only better with someone to touch
I got the telephone stuck to my ear I keep yelling but you don't hear In all the universe i'm just a speck of dust But all i can do is keep trying . . . . To give you the human touch You know we're nothing in the scheme of things Just microchips in big machines And the world is spinning round and round But i know that we can slow it down And i know that i can make you see I'm on the side of you and me And all i want to do Listen to me . . . Is give you . . . give you Give you the human touch
