ON THE LIPS
[Verse 1]
I never had dream like this
A memory of a one-time kiss
Tiny shadows in the autumn moonlight
Ticking items off each other's list
Finally it was on the lips
Pulled me down like a sinking ship
Time burns, you forget the feeling
That tingled from knees to your fingertips

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Memories fade away with ease but
There's a mark where I got hit

[Chorus]
You kissed me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips

[Verse 2]
Blurry songs from a hum-drum town
Popped up when the rain poured down
Holy, charming and full of grit
Something sharp in the hands of a little kid
Give me voice, let it gleam and shine
Like a candle in a diamond mine
For a while I lay dumb and deaf
Only when it's freezing can you see your breath
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Melodies fade away with ease but
There's a mark where I got hit

[Chorus]
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips

[Chorus]
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
It hit me
On the lips
