The While and Matthews Collaborative, Julie Matthews, Chris While, Johnny Heyes, Kellie While, Marion Fleetwood, Neil Fairclough and Tom Chapman - Embrace

It’s not the big things I miss the most
Grand gestures don’t come close
The one thing you can’t replace
The human touch, a warm embrace

It’s not the loss of liberty
Or the sudden lack of certainty
It’s knowing when I see your face
There’ll be no touch or a warm embrace

When all this is over and done
When I’m counting my blessings one by one
My hearts own desire, won’t be so hard to trace
Your embrace

Every night I see your face
A webcam is our saving grace
But when I see you my heart aches
For human touch your warm embrace

In this time we isolate
Ponder on our normal state
That takes for granted, often wastes
The human touch, a warm embrace

When all this is over and done
When I’m counting my blessings one by one
My hearts own desire, won’t be so hard to trace
Your embrace

I might hold you just a little longer than I did before
When what’s felt like forever is behind us
And I’ll fall into your arms when we can open up that door
‘Cause distance only serves to remind us
When all this is over and done
When I’m counting my blessings one by one
My hearts own desire, won’t be so hard to trace
Your embrace
