It was one of those nights, when you turn off the lights
And everythin' comes into view
She was taking her time, I was losing my mind
There was nothin' that she wouldn't do
It wasn't the first, it wasn't the last
She knew we was, makin' love
I was so satisfied, deep down inside
Like a hand in a velvet glove
Seems like a touch
A touch too much
Seems like a touch
A touch too much
Too much for my body, too much for my brain
This damn woman's gonna drive me insane
She got a touch
A touch too much
She'd had the face of an angel, smilin' with sin
The body of Venus with arms
Dealin' with danger, strokin' my skin
Like a thunder and lightenin' storm
It wasn't the first, it wasn't the last
It wasn't that she didn't care
She wanted it hard, she wanted it fast
She liked it done medium rare
Seems like a touch
A touch too much
Seems like a touch
A touch too much
Too much for my body, too much for my brain
This damn woman's gonna drive me insane
She got a touch
A touch too much
Seems like a touch, touch too much
You know it's much too much, much too much
I really want to feel your touch too much
Girl you know you're getting me much too much
Seems like a touch
Just a dirty little touch
I really need your touch
Cause you're much too much too much
