You just have to be sure you're doing the right thing...
I mean it's very easy to forget.
She's just sitting there in the pub with her new friends,
And her new life and her new hair,
And it might’ve been five years but you'd know just to look at her.
I wasn't even sure it was her at first,
I was ready to walk away.
But she smiled and called me over
And we said hello for a bit.
When we went back to our tables
We tried not to look over at each other,
And told our friends to stop staring.
I didn't see her for the rest of the night.
But by closing time the beer's kicked in.
So I go up and speak to her.
We end up going for a walk and talking about our new homes,
Our new jobs, our new friends, and our new birds.
She said she's been going out with him now
For about two and a half years.
But they don't live together so he'd never find out.
And you think about chasing her about school
When you were wee and lying in your bed
And listening to love songs
And pretending they were about you
And the first time you asked her out
She said no.
But one night you went to a wedding
And when you came back to the pub
She's changed her mind and you went out.
You remember the way she swung her arms
When she held your hand
But you can't remember how she kissed.
And now you've got the chance to find out...
But you have to remember there's this other kiss.
She's sitting at home, wondering where you are and what you're doing
And you work hard on this kiss and you know it inside out
It's as much yours as it is hers
And it took a long time to get right.
It took months of practice,
And months of embarrassment but now you've got it perfected.
And you've been looking forward to that kiss all week.
You can see her breath in the air between your faces
As you stand in the leaves.
And she just asks you straight out
If you want to come and stay at her flat.
But you make sure you get separate taxis.
And you go home and there might be a slight regret,
And maybe you wonder what you missed...
But you have to remember the kiss that you worked so hard on,
And you'll know you've done the right thing.
