| I was a knock-kneed freckle faced overshy underfed boy
|
| In the summer i’ll always remember
|
| Said i was high-strung middle-class oversexed underemployed
|
| By september i was a man
|
| I followed the throng
|
| Out to the coast and found
|
| A girl who stepped out of a song
|
| And my world filled with light and sound as she said to me
|
| Can i borrow a kiss that’s what i heard
|
| Can i borrow a kiss no cost incurred
|
| And i’ll pay it back with interest
|
| If you’ll only say the word
|
| Can i borrow a kiss like lovers do
|
| Can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true
|
| Let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you
|
| She was a dark-haired satin-skinned velvet-eyed wisp of a girl
|
| With a smile that could stop you from breathing
|
| She had me coming on getting off tuning in and out of this world
|
| And believing love was for real
|
| Just like in a poem
|
| She smiled that smile and then
|
| I knew i would not be alone
|
| And that soon all my cares would end when she said to me
|
| Can i borrow a kiss is what i heard
|
| Can i borrow a kiss no cost incurred
|
| And i’ll pay it back with interest
|
| If you’ll only say the word
|
| Can i borrow a kiss like lovers do
|
| Can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true
|
| Let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you
|
| When i look back upon the time that’s passed away
|
| It always seems that all my dreams are yesterday
|
| And i’ll pay it back with interest
|
| If you’ll only say the word
|
| Can i borrow a kiss like lovers do
|
| Can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true
|
| Let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you
|
| And i’ll give it right back to you |
