Kiss That Counted
by Catie Curtis

I saw it coming like summer rain
Incoming ocean, oncoming train
I veered in circles to get off your path
I tried to warn you

That this would be the kiss that counted
The one that mattered
My life before me undone
This would be the kiss that counted
The one that shattered my defenses
Bringing me emotion

I shut my windows and my eyes
I put on my headphones
And I stayed inside
But all these love songs
pouring through my veins
Carried you to me

This would be the kiss that counted
The one that mattered
My life before me undone
This would be the kiss that counted
The one that shattered my defenses
Bringing me emotion

You say, "It must be 4 AM"
And I say, "If I don't kiss you now
I will never sleep again"

Yours was the kiss that counted
The one that mattered
My life before me undone
This would be the kiss that counted
The one that shattered my defenses
Bringing me emotion and devotion
