Lyrics:
It's A Kiss [Version (a)]:
You're so good to me
You make things happen
That I thought I would never see
It's no mystery
That every time you talk
It's just your lips I see
I see my mouth just above your mouth
Just want to hold there
Just hold it right there
Until we start shaking
And we can't be taking it no more
But hold it right there
You're taken, I'm taken
There's nothing for the taking
Seems we've done all the taking we can
You can't give in, I can't give in
So there's nothing left to give
Seems we've done all the giving we can
And if our lips touch
Then it's a kiss
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
It is not right to try and sleep
With my heart like this
And if I can't have you
I'll just bite my lips
Oh I'll bite my lips
And wait for you to pass
Try to focus on why
This could never last
'Cause if it's not right to hold you
I'll just have to hold you
In my dreams
I'll bite my lips
Until you're on your way
And waking life can return
You're taken, I'm taken
So baby just let me burn
Cause if it is wrong to want you
Oh just let me burn
Pull me closer
And if our lips touch
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
Hold me closer
And if our lips touch
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
Oooh
You're so good to me
You make things happen
That I thought I would never see
It's no mystery
That every time you talk
It's just your lips I see
I see my mouth just above your mouth
Just want to hold there
Just hold it right there
Until we start shaking
And we can't be taking it no more
But hold it right there
You're taken, I'm taken
There's nothing for the taking
Seems we've done all the taking we can
You can't give in, I can't give in
So there's nothing left to give
Seems we've done all the giving we can
And if our lips touch
Then it's a kiss
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
It is not right to try and sleep
With my heart like this
And if I can't have you
I'll just bite my lips
Oh I'll bite my lips
And wait for you to pass
Try to focus on why
This could never last
'Cause if it's not right to hold you
I'll just have to hold you
In my dreams
I'll bite my lips
Until you're on your way
And waking life can return
You're taken, I'm taken
So baby just let me burn
Cause if it is wrong to want you
Oh just let me burn
Pull me closer
And if our lips touch
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
Hold me closer
And if our lips touch
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
It's a kiss
Oooh
