DON'T KISS ME NOW

The clock runs fast, won’t slow it down Your heart’s too far, can’t turn it ‘round I’ve changed, I know — is that my crime? I couldn’t keep your love this time It’s better not to stay tonight You know my body’s weak, my heart It’s time to end, to say goodbye The love we had has torn apart Don’t kiss me now, my dear, don’t try The final chance has passed us by I loved you blind, I couldn’t see That love would end in tragedy So much desire, all in vain I couldn’t give you all I had Now all that’s left is endless pain For never knowing what we had My bed is cold, the night is long Without your warmth, I don’t belong You were my soul, my only home Now you just haunt me when I’m alone My heart still beats, but not the same The days we lost — they never turn It hurts to whisper out your name And sleep while all my memories burn Don’t kiss me now, my dear, don’t try The final chance has passed us by I loved you blind, I couldn’t see That love would end in tragedy So much desire, all in vain I couldn’t give you all I had Now all that’s left is endless pain For never knowing what we had
