lyrics

What I Wanted....
(KISS ME)

by Mad Mar Walker

I can't think what to say
I'm all tangled up in nerves
and you go acting formal
talking business and throwing me curves
None of your serious, well-directed
intelligent conversation
ever missed me
but what i really wanted
was for you to kiss me.

I'm still sitting over here
You're sitting way over there
and in between is no-man's land
where nobody dares
Some folks move so smooth
oh I'm so shy
Can't you see my eyes
get misty.
I'm not much of a mover
so please
come over here and kiss me.

I guess I'm not your cup of tea
I'm not your brand of whiskey
You sure don't look nervous
You're sure NOT getting frisky.....

I can't think what to say
I'm all tangled up in knots
You sit there so damn cool
while I suffer with the hots
So folks move so smooth
Oh I'm so shy
can't you see my eyes
get misty.
Now you know what I wanted
So please
come over here and kiss me.
