One Touch, One Kiss

❖

Him:  How many clues am I missing? 
Her:  How many chances are passing me by?
Him:  Could this be love that she's giving?
Her:  One touch, one kiss and I wouldn't be shy.
Him:  Just one sure sign and then you'd see that old bravado.
Her:  Those well-worn lines that turned their heads 
      In all those misty Garbo films.
Both: It ain't that simple in real life, 
      You're skating on thin ice which won't break your way.

Her:  Could be I've let myself be fooled again,
      Your smile was only there to catch my eye.
      But I could never believe your love won't grow.

      ------------

Her:  Could be I've let myself be fooled again,
      Your smile was only there to catch my eye.
      But I could never believe your love would go.

Him:  In case you ever should wonder, 
      I never wanted it to turn out this way.
Her:  It seems so strange now I'm leaving 
      You should wait 'til now if you've got something to say.
Him:  Well I've changed my mind, 
      A sign that things are getting better.
Her:  Perhaps for you, but not for me.
      You're thinking "Let her".   
Him:  Oh will you stay?

Her:  Well I'm standing in the hallway ready to go.
Him:  The answer's written in your eyes and I know.
