lyrics

They had talked for hours
It didn't start with flowers like it sometimes does
But when the words began to fail
He didn't know just how to say what was in his heart
And that's when it starts

They looked each other over
Stared at one another in a lover's way
And then the walls came tumbling down
There's only one way out of a stalemate like this
Here comes the kiss

Oh, the kiss
Everything looks different
It's all he's ever wanted, all she's ever missed
Up until that point you can walk away
No one's hurt, no one has to pay
But oh, not after the kiss

The minutes turn to hours
You give in to the power of the passion play
Never a thought of right or wrong
What made you wait so long for a moment like this?
Oh, the kiss

The world just spins
As one friendship ends
And a new one begins

Now the games are over
Is it all you thought that it would ever be?
Or were you blinded by the view?
There's so many more like you
So afraid they might miss
The passion, the pain, the power
The kiss
