You Never Tried to Kiss Me

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 4 months ago 2 min read

[Verse]

We shared so many laughs under moonlit skies

Talked late until the stars said good night

Your eyes would gaze and linger

But your hands stayed at your side

I yearned for a spark

I really wanted to make you mine

[Prechorus]

I gave you chances

I gave you the time

But your reluctance stopped you every time

[Chorus]

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once

You kept your distance from me

So now why the anger?

Why the blame?

Because I found someone who wasn't playing your games

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once

[Verse 2]

Your words were like riddles

And your moves were so damn slow

You danced a dance with steps I'd never know

I'd try and lean in close

But you'd turn away and stall

You're the one who built these walls

Baby you're the one at fault

[[Chorus]

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once

You kept your distance from me

So now why the anger?

Why the blame?

Because I found someone who wasn't playing your games

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once

[Bridge]

Was it fear or pride?

I'll never know

Why was your heart on pause?

Was it too scared to let go?

[Chorus]

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once

You kept your distance from me

So now why the anger?

Why the blame?

Because I found someone who wasn't playing your games

You never tried to kiss me

No, no not once
