Can I Borrow a Kiss

i was a knock-kneed freckle faced overshy underfed boy
 in the summer i'll always remember
 said i was high-strung middle-class oversexed 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 passed 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 make dreams come true

 and i'll give it right back to you
 and i'll give it right back to you
