"you don't kiss anyone on the mouth but me."
i can taste the bitter sweetness in every kiss (which can be the last kiss)
and we hold our hands a little tighter, hold each other a little closer
we sleep less and kiss more and laugh harder than we did before
and the drinks keep coming,
but we've been drunk off each other all this time
you keep asking if i'm yours and i keep whispering i am
but property is a complex thing and we thought it would never come to this,
but i am yours, and you are mine
even if it's only for a little while
i may not know where we are, but i know what we aren't
so kiss me hard before you go,
we don't have very many tomorrows, but we have a few tonights yet
though you make hot summer nights feel like winter when you leave
