Kiss That Counted

I saw it coming like summer rain

Incoming ocean, oncoming train

I veered in circles to get off your path

I tried to warn you

That this would be the kiss that counted

The one that mattered

My life before me undone

This would be the kiss that counted

The one that shattered my defenses

Bringing me emotion

I shut my windows and my eyes

I put on my headphones

And I stayed inside

But all these love songs

Pouring through my veins

Carried you to me

This would be the kiss that counted

The one that mattered

My life before me undone

This would be the kiss that counted

The one that shattered my defenses

Bringing me emotion

You say, "It must be 4 AM"

And I say, "If I don't kiss you now

I will never sleep again"

Yours was the kiss that counted

The one that mattered

My life before me undone

This would be the kiss that counted

The one that shattered my defenses

Bringing me emotion and devotion
