Can you kiss me one more time?

Take me on one last, forever ride

Let’s soar to the moon, touch the burning stars,

Let the tears flow, let them consume what's died

I’ll let you go, but grant me this one last wish

Please, give me one last kiss.

Can you kiss me one more time?

Let tomorrow’s worries await your troubled mind.

Embrace me with your arms of regret,

Shroud me with your cologne, so that I won't forget your scent

I’ll let you go after I’ve engraved you in my mind

Please, give me one last kiss, one last time.

Can you kiss me one more time?

A kiss of desire, like borrowed time

Yes, I promise to let you go,

If only I could sip on your whiskey breath

Let my soul burn in your aftertaste.

I have nothing left.

Let me be your barstool memory

Please, just one last kiss.
