The Common Kiss Lyrics

I was feeling down, beneath a frown

Just like a plane that can't get off the ground

I couldn't face the climb

I was all alone until you phoned

How did you know that I was sitting home?

Sometimes I wonder bout your timing

We went out drinking

And before I started thinking much too hard

You played your wild card...

You were sitting there, you had the chair

There was a little heaven in the air

Your hair was like a halo

Then you leaned so close and I supposed

You wanted to whisper something so I froze

Held my breath upon your say so

I closed my eyes

And suddenly I realised

Right on time, the moment that your mouth touched mine...

I Caught The Common Kiss

The one that's going round

Caught the Common Kiss

Now it's all over town

I'll pass it on to someone else but only when it's time to

Cos I caught the common kiss from you

Now I'm not the same, I have no shame

Just like a starlet who's in search of fame

I'd do anything

I'll stay in bed, forget the bread

I'll ring up work and I'll sound like I'm dead

I've lost my head, remembering

I closed my eyes

And suddenly I realised

Who was boss, when your mouth was right where mine was...

I Caught The Common Kiss

The one that's going round

Caught the Common Kiss

Now it's all over town

I'll pass it on to someone else but only when it's time to

Cos I caught the common kiss from you
