I Could Just Kick Myself For Not Kissing You

I COULD JUST KICK MYSELF FOR NOT KISSING YOU

Well, it was 4:00 in the morning and the people were gone
The party was over, lord how we carried on
We raised a little hell and we killed a ton of drinks
We got our fill of fun because the soul sometimes sinks

But now the house was empty save for me and one girl
She didn't want to drive with her head in the whirl
So we turned on the TV and turned out the lights
And sat on the love seat talking all night

She was singing the blues about her deadbeat man
And how the passion they shared couldn't fill a tin can
I've been there before but you'd better believe
I knew better than to wear my heart on my sleeve

I acted so cool though I was sweating inside
Pretending I was James Dean, well at least I tried
She poured out her feelings and I pulled off my lines
We were digging for gold and our hearts were the mines
We were digging for gold and our hearts were the mines

Then came that moment of silence, you've heard it before
It's the one we both spent the whole night waiting for
I looked in her eyes and she looked in mine
And every star in the sky saw our planets align
I must be lost in space because I didn't see
And I didn't move a muscle
And I didn't make a sound
And that's when she got up and said goodnight to me

Now I could just kick myself for not kissing you
When every bone in my body was telling me
Boy that's what you better do
If I could I'd go back in time
I'd pull you close and press your lips to mine
But now I can only dream what lovers do
Oh, I could just kick myself for not kissing you

When she said goodnight I said "Sweet dreams"
Trying to hide the stitches that were splitting in my jeans
Watching sun come up, I cursed the light of day
She was wading in her water, why'd I keep her at bay?

What was I thinking, where was my head?
Whatever I was drinking turned my tongue to led
I had rocks in my mouth, ice on my feet
Now I'm steaming like an iron in these ice cold sheets
Steaming like an iron in these ice cold sheets

(Girl)
He must think I'm a prude, he must think I'm a tease
Now this squeaky wheel won't ever get the grease
Nothing wrong with a girl makin’ the moves nowadays
But I sat on my hands and now here I am wishing I was where he lays

I was minding my manners as if I had a choice
In the back of my brain I heard my mother's voice
Telling me that a lady always makes him wait
And though I longed to be a sinner I had to be a saint
So I didn't lose control
And I didn't hurt her pride
I would have crawled over coals but I stayed on my side
I would have crawled over coals but I stayed on my side

Now I could just kick myself for not kissing you
When all of my senses were screaming at me
Girl that's what you got to do
I had a hundred chances and I let them pass
A oughta get my daddy’s gun from behind the glass
Blow myself away like I blew off you
Oh, I could just kick myself for not kissing you

(Boy)
I could just kick myself for not kissing you
I could fall on my sword for not running you threw
I could slit my wrist for not holding your hand
I could sit on a bomb for not taking a stand

(Girl)
I could drive my camaro straight into a tree
For not driving you boy straight into me
I could douse myself in gas right here on the spot
For letting you get away with getting me so hot

(Boy)
You were sitting in the shadows like an angel out of place
I had Heaven in my hands and fell flat on my face

(Girl)
The Seniorrita on TV couldn't keep her clothes on
She had the right idea...where did I go wrong

(Boy)
We could have got the ball rolling , who knows where it'd stop
(Girl)
We could have took a tiny flame and made it glow red hot
(Boy)
All the signs were shining like a neon light
(Girl)
Mother nature had it planned, we screwed it up all right

(Both)
Well, there's no point bitching now the damage is done
Still I hate to think of all those sleepless nights when I'll lie awake and wonder
If maybe you were the one....

Well let me to you honey, girl you better beware
I'm throwing caution to the wind and I don't care where
The next time I see you, day or night
I'm gonna walk up to you and pull you in tight
You may slap me in the face, that's a chance I gotta take
You may throw me on my back and use your nails like a rake
But I got a know for certain and I gotta know real soon
Was that the light of love shining in your eyes
Or just the glaze of glowing moon
