Secret Touch Lyrics
The way out
Is the way in
The way out
Is the way in...
Out of touch
With the weather and the wind direction
With the sunrise
And the phases of the moon
Out of touch
With life in the land of the loving
With the living night
And the darkness at high noon
You can never break the chain
There is never love without pain
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heart
Out of sync
With the rhythm of my own reactions
With the things that last
And the things that come apart
Out of sync
With love in the land of the living
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heart
A healing hand, a secret touch on the heart
There is never love without pain
Life is a power that remains
Is the way in
The way out
Is the way in...
With the weather and the wind direction
With the sunrise
And the phases of the moon
Out of touch
With life in the land of the loving
With the living night
And the darkness at high noon
There is never love without pain
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heart
With the rhythm of my own reactions
With the things that last
And the things that come apart
Out of sync
With love in the land of the living
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heart
Life is a power that remains

The bass parts in this song are absolutely phenomenal, Geddy Lee is amazing
I think it's about the connection we have with nature, specifically during Peart's ghost rider period. "The way out" is separation from society, "the way in" is the deeper understanding of the big question gained from the separation. Basically, as confused and desperate we get, there is always nature to turn to which will show us beauty and truth.
reference to the tao?
This song is clearly about the prostate cancer exam. The healing hand, a secret touch. That is why the way out becomes the way in. This should be played the advertise preventive actions
From the Ghost Rider period, when Neil found himself with a shot at "romance" again. The phrase "A secret touch on the heart" came from a book that Neil read during this time on his travels (shamed to say I can't remember title or author just now!).
This song is absolutely awesome live.
It's pretty much my favorite song overall. Seems to me this song is about Captain Kirk of Star Trek. Neil expresses it in his usual and highly creative manner and Geddy (with Alex's help, of course) knows how to make it completely shred musically. These guys play secretive a lot, but we actually need them a lot. Am I actually the first to guess about this one?
i agree with lerxstgk, during neil's "exile" he'd constantly question whether or not he'd ever be able to love again after what happened. and i think this song is a reflection on those thoughts
Song is obviously about masturbation DURRRR seriously though neil pert need to quit jacking off to pictures of himself.
This song is actually about anal masturbation.
This song is actually about anal masturbation.
This song is about how despite being in a dark depression, being disconnected from everything, from the environment to normal human interactions, Neil is healed by an unexpected connection.
