Kiss Me

'Kiss Me'

By Sixpence None The Richer

Kiss
me, out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon’s sparkling, so kiss me

Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We’ll take the trail marked on your father’s map

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon’s sparkling, so kiss me

So kiss me
So kiss me

This song came up in about 1999. We all had this letter book where we'd doodle and write letters to each other during class. Dawson's Creek was a hot topic for all of us about now and this song seems to remind me of that time.
