Credits/Backstory:
This track was produced by polymath and all-around good guy Nick Appleby in his home studio. I strummed acoustic guitar and sang, and Nick did the rest.
I’ll buy you a beer if you can tell me which ’60’s pop tune I (inadvertently) ripped off, big time, right down to the hook and even the title. Offer not valid if you’re Jef Wilson.Listen/Download:

Lyrics:
I can’t touch you
can’t get you back in my arms
I can’t touch you
I’ve tried all my many charms
I sang beautiful songs and told silly little jokes
if I could get you close I would give you strokes
but you’re so far away
I can’t touch you.I can’t touch you
you’re out of my hands
I can’t touch you
and I don’t understand
I wrote beautiful letters and silly little notes
I bought a basket of flowers and ice-cream floats
but you’re so far away
I can’t touch you.I’m crazy for this sweet little girl
and she’s makin’ me nuts.I can’t touch you
you’re beyond my grasp
I can’t touch you
is this our last gasp?
whatever it is you should let it go
wherever you are you should come back home
‘cause you’re so far away, you’re so far away,
I can’t touch you, I can’t touch you,
I can’t touch you.
