I call you my touchstone, honey
I am careful not to touch you all the time
Try to leave you alone
Sometimes I fantasize about you
While you're lying next to me
In my bed
I'm thinking about all the things we could be doing
Instead

Take care of the magic touchstone
Only hold it when in need
Take care of the magic touchstone
Wish upon it only when in need

Sometimes I grip you so tight
Lucky pebble in the palm of my hand
I found in the ocean that night
I almost drowned in a rip
But was carried back to shore by a freak wave
I was shivering, promising on it
I'll never dive in so deep again

Take care of the magic touchstone
Only hold it when in need
Take care of the magic touchstone
Wish upon it only when in need

Take care of the magic touchstone, honey
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Take care of the magic touchstone
Only hold it when in need
Or your luck will run out
Or your luck will run out
