FIRST KISS
Lyrics by Roger Coghill.
I got your text to meet you in the park
By that green bench where we would hide away.
Don’t be afraid, I’m not the sort to boast
Or tell the world the secret games we play.
We sat so close when we were both at school
That I could almost hear your beating heart,
Or feel the slightest movement of your hair,
Or every time your salty tears would start.
Each time you cried, I cried along with you.
Each time you smiled, my happiness began.
Your life became my life. I still don’t know
When love arrived to scatter my life’s plan.
Chorus:
Let our first kiss enflame the sky with fire.
This madness has a price but I don’t care.
I tell you frankly that our differences
Are lower far than all the things we share.
Verse:
No force can ever dull the taste
Of promises your soft tongue makes to mine.
When we were small, we shared our bags of sweets.
Now we are grown it’s time to taste the wine.
