Touches You Lyrics
When you've had enough and you need somebody to know
When you're looking tough but you need a way to let it go Come on now, what's a boy s'posed to do When I can't seem to leave you alone Touching me touching you I wanna be your brother, wanna be your father too Never make you run for cover even if they want us to I wanna be your sister, wanna be your mother too I wanna be wanna be Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you If you're ever losing, losing your way just stop and listen to the things that they say To avoid confrontation You walk away Growing up when I need to compromise When I've had enough 20 years and I realize Come on now, what's a boy s'posed to do When I can't seem to leave you alone Touching me touching you I wanna be your brother, wanna be your father too Never make you run for cover even if they want us to I wanna be your sister, wanna be your mother too I wanna be wanna be Whatever else that touches you I wanna be your brother, wanna be your father too Never make you run for cover even if they want us to I wanna be your sister, wanna be your mother too I wanna be wanna be Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you Whatever else that touches you

I think it's about somebody who's very withdrawn and introverted, who won't open up to anybody. I think the song's point of view is from somebody who wants to get close to them in whatever way they can--to get the person out of their shell.
Or it's just about a creeper. Haha.

First off, there's a verse missing from the beginning here that goes:
"You think you're better, you're better than me
You write me off as history
To avoid conversation, you ignore me."
I view it as a man singing to an ex-significant other (woman in my imagination, but that doesn't have to be the case). For whatever reason, they broke up but he's not over her. He wants to try and work things out, but she keeps blowing him off. The "touches you" part is emotional, not physical; he wants to be as important to her as her family is because that's how much she means to him.
That's how I think of it, anyway.

I'm guessing the song is about a man, trying to tell -in my mind- a woman that he wants to be there for her, not just as a lover but so much more than that. As in how actions can sometimes "touch" you (in the heart), he wants to be there for her.
and, adding that missing part, it's probably his ex, and maybe this is how he tries to explain to her how he wants to be there for her when they try again...?
a bit of a wild guess. Other than that, i love the song to bits. Nice and sensitive :)
