L'aura del Campo

No touching me, no touching you

"No touching me, no touching you"

This pandemic panic.
Touching me, touching you.

This insane influenza
reaching out, touching you.

Wash your hands,
but do not touch me.

Hands, touching hands,
spread the flu

to me
and then to you.

Want me to make you ill?
Hold me tight.

Kiss me one last time!
Death comes tonight.

Until this passes,
blow me kisses from afar.

No hands touching hands,
I miss you.

No reaching out,
I miss you.

no touching me,
no touching you.

My quick response after listening to Neil Diamond sing "Sweet Caroline" (1971).

The song included these words:

Hands, touching hands
Reaching out, touching me, touching you

Yes, great song, known by millions, but not exactly good advice at the moment.
