I’ve seen your picture in the paper
On the front page of magazines
I’ve pulled the trigger right at you
On billboards and movie screens
When I talk, it’s to myself
Cause I know your kind, you’re like everyone else
Maybe it’ll work itself out in time, before I lose my mind
You, You’re Out-A-Touch
All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much
Your Out-A-Touch
I keep your letters by the mirror
You’re the subject of every dream
You’re not so invincible, and I’m not what I might seem
When I look, it’s in your eyes
And I know your look, you can hypnotize
How long does it have to last like this, a kodachrome kiss
You, You’re Out-A-Touch
All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much
You, You’re Out-A-Touch
You’re in my sight all through the night
And I see too much
Your Out-A-Touch
Can’t you see I’m obsessed
I’d do anything, I’m possessed
I’m in a constant rage with your luminary stage
I need you, I need you
I’ve seen your picture in the paper
On the front page of magazines
I’ve pulled the trigger right at you
On billboards and movie screens
When I look, it’s in your eyes
And I know your look, you can hypnotize
How long does it have to last like this, a kodachrome kiss
You, You’re Out-A-Touch
All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much
Your Out-A-Touch
I need you (7 times)
- Myron: I contributed heavily to that song. I think I wrote one line and graciously accepted a third of the song.
Neil: No, no, no. The chorus was nowhere until you fixed it up.
Myron: we had the whole song but for some reason we couldn’t get one little piece of it. I guess God wanted to me to get a song on the album, so he gave me a little piece of it.Neil: It sounded great. It was just a guitar riff.Pat: That’s what we do. Everybody just throws ideas in. Songs don’t alwasy come complete. When we start cutting them we don’t have any idea where we’re going.
