The Knack - Can I Borrow A Kiss lyrics

i was a knock-kneed freckle faced overshy underfed boy in the summer i'll always remember said i was high-strung middle-cla** overs**ed underemployed by september i was a man i followed the throng out to the coast and found a girl who stepped out of a song and my world filled with light and sound as she said to me can i borrow a kiss that's what i heard can i borrow a kiss no cost incurred and i'll pay it back with interest if you'll only say the word can i borrow a kiss like lovers do can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss and i'll give it right back to you and i'll give it right back to you she was a dark-haired satin-skinned velvet-eyed wisp of a girl with a smile that could stop you from breathing she had me coming on getting off tuning in and out of this world and believing love was for real just like in a poem she smiled that smile and then i knew i would not be alone and that soon all my cares would end when she said to me can i borrow a kiss is what i heard can i borrow a kiss no cost incurred and i'll pay it back with interest if you'll only say the word can i borrow a kiss like lovers do can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss and i'll give it right back to you and i'll give it right back to you when i look back upon the time that's pa**ed away it always seems that all my dreams are yesterday and i'll pay it back with interest if you'll only say the word can i borrow a kiss like lovers do can i borrow a kiss make dreams come true let me know i exist can i borrow a kiss and i'll give it right back to you and i'll give it right back to you
