Touch
Dave Grohl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will wait for you honestly
I am yours - entirely...
I remember last night's dream
Could it be the one of me?
I've known the face inside the window
And the voice forever in my heart...
I remember last night's dream
Could it be the one of me?
I've been waiting silently...
Would you risk it all...
With me?
The lyrics to Dave Grohl's song Touch seem to express both devotion and longing for someone. The opening line, "touch...light as a feather" implies a desire for a gentle connection with the object of affection. The singer then expresses their willingness to wait for this person and their commitment to being completely devoted to them. The second verse seems to suggest that the singer has known this person for a long time, perhaps even intimately, but has yet to fully pursue a romantic relationship with them. The reference to an angel's arrow could also imply a sense of destiny or fate in their connection.
The repeated line of "I remember last night's dream, could it be the one of me?" adds a layer of ambiguity and uncertainty to the song. It's unclear whether the singer has actually had a dream about this person, or if they are simply hoping that their feelings are reciprocated. The last two lines, "I've been waiting silently...would you risk it all...with me?" seem to make a plea for the other person to take a chance on them and pursue a deeper connection.
Overall, the lyrics to Touch convey a sense of vulnerability and intense emotion, while leaving some things up to interpretation.
