What he is saying is there are 2 wires coming to and from your lamp.
one of these is a hot lead where the power is coming into your lamp, and is trying to find its way to neutral or ground.
If you broke the neutral line with your switch the power is still going into your circuit trying to find its way. By touching the lamp you are making a very faint connection to ground allowing more power to flow through it.
