Can We Kiss? Songtext
von Calvin Johnson

What I wanna know is, can we kiss?
Can we find a way to
Sidestep the usual
Strange unveiling?
Strange unveiling
Can we kiss?
Can we kiss?

Oh, on my arm
On the back of your neck
We could meet halfway at your lips
You graze my cheek
Such a delicious risk
Can we kiss?
Can we kiss? Oh-oh-oh


Kiss
Ki-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, kiss
Kiss

What would happen if we happened to kiss?
Would the clouds curl up? Would the Earth still exist?
Would the stars melt down to a waxen pool?
Would the sky fall like I′m falling for you?
You, you, you

Would I be out of place
To lean over and touch your cheek?
Searching for longing in your face
Oh, I barely breathe

There's longing in every step I make
I know your Cupid′s bullseye
I'm Cupid's flame-darkened alibi
Are we gonna let this mild contradiction
Keep us from kissing? Oh
Can we now, now, now?


All I wanna know
What I wanna know
Is can we kiss?
