Christina Amphlett and Mark McEntee, the core duo of the band Divinyls, wrote the song in collaboration with the songwriting duo Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg, who had penned big hits such as “I’ll Stand By You” and “Like a Virgin ”. It was unusual for both songwriting duos to collaborate, especially for Kelly/Steinberg to do so with a relatively obscure “alternative” act (more by default than design) with no previous U.S.-Top 40 single bragging rights.

I Touch Myself lyrics

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I feel down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You're the one who makes me come runnin'
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around, I'm always laughin'
I want to make you mine
I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I'd get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no, yeah
I love myself
I want you to love me
When I feel down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I touch myself (I don't want)
I touch myself (Anybody else)
I touch myself (When I think about you)
I touch myself
I touch myself (I don't want)
I touch myself (Anybody else)
I touch myself (When I think about you)
I honestly do
I touch myself (I don't want)
I touch myself (Anybody else)
I touch myself (When I think about you)
I honestly do
I touch myself
I touch myself
I touch myself
