Dolly Parton — As Soon as I Touched Him

[Verse 1] He came to me like a bright idea Shining like the sun And the way his eyes burned into mine I knew he must be the one Oh, he drew me in like a magnet does So I couldn't pull away But the kind of lovin' that I gave to him I'm not ashamed to say [Chorus] Oh, as soon as I touched him Soon as I touched him I felt like a woman And the feelin' made me close my eyes Soon as I touched him I was born again And I heard myself cryin' Like a newborn baby cries [Verse 2] He told me what I meant to him Swore that I was sent to him All my lovin' went to him Now he's gone, oh he's gone Now I hide myself from the light of day So no one else can see A part of him that I can't forget That's growin' deep inside of me [Chorus] Oh, as soon as I touched him Soon as I touched him I felt like a woman And the feelin' made me close my eyes Soon as I touched him I was born again Anf I heard myself cryin' Like our newborn baby cries Soon as I touched him As soon as I touched him I felt like a woman And the feelin' made me close my eyes Soon as I touched him As soon as I touched him An' I heard myself cryin' Like a newborn baby cries
