first kiss (on a night like this)

2 october 1998 *** 9:05pm

.

it’s a beautiful night

stars shine through clouds

back-lit by moonlight

i’m thinking of you

.

what a perfect evening

to give a first kiss

held close in a shadow

on a night like this

.

best chance —

you missed it

.

best chance–

slept through

.

perfect evening

beautiful view

thinking it’s right

thinking of you

.

(thinking it’s right)

.

but i’ll never tell you

throw your head in a whirl

i’ll be patiently waiting

waiting on my girl

.

what a beautiful night

stars shining through

clouds lit by moonlight

i’m thinking of you

.

it’s a perfect evening

it’s a perfect bliss

held close in a shadow

on a night like this

.

best chance–

you missed it

.

best chance–

slept through

.

i’m perfectly happy

just thinking of you

.

best chance–

you guessed it

.

best chance–

i lied

.

you’re perfectly beautiful

when you’re thinking it’s right

.

but i’ll never tell you

throw your head in a whirl

i’ll be patiently waiting

waiting on my girl

.

and then just plain disappeared!!!)
