I think that a song should be something more
Than a beautiful melody
To tell the story of truth and reality

I think that song should be sung by a man
Who knows the meaning of sorrow
And the meaning of true, true love

I think that a song should be shared among friends
But when friends are gone
The melody and music still lingers on

With tales of the good times, tales of the bad
Tales of when we're happy, when we're sad

Chorus:
Everything you touch is a song
You touched my life one day
All my burdens rolled away, they rolled away

You wrote a song that even the bees could hum
Everything you touch is a song (repeat)

Oh you touched a bird, and that's a song
That bird started to sing (twee da dee da dee)

You went in the jungle and you touched a lion
And that's a song
And oh that lion started to roar (roar)

You touched a bell, and that's a song
And that bell started to ring (ring-a-ling)

If you listen real close
Everything in nature sings, oh

Chorus:
Everything you touch is a song
Oh most importantly, you touched my life

Oh I'm mighty grateful
You came along and touched my life, you touched my life

I didn't think I could last but along came Jesus and
Oh He just laid His whole hand on me, you touched my life

You, you, you, you, you, you (repeat)
Oh I want to tell the whole world that it was you
You touched my life

I was sinking fast and I didn't think I was gonna rise
But along came Jesus and touched my life, you touched my life

My, my, my, my, my and my burdens they just rolled all away
They rolled away

You wrote a song that the robin's could sing, Oh
Everything you touch . . . is a song

I think that a song should be something more, Oh
