Lyrics

Can You Kiss Me - Chad LaMarsh

When you see me
We stand nervously near
The quicken of our breathe
The pleasure and the fear

Only air between us
We try to shade our desperate light
We'll hide in hesitation
But our hearts cannot deny

Ch: Can you kiss me
Like you know you're aching to
Can you kiss me
When your heart is telling you
Will you keep on hiding
Or will you open up your life
and just kiss me - let it feel so right

When I'm dreaming
And our fingers barely brush
Words no longer remain
We only speak in touch

I fall completely
I have no fear for what may be
'Cause you're everything I never thought could be a part of me

Ch: Can you kiss me
Like you know you're aching to
Can you kiss me
When your heart is telling you
Will you keep on running
Or open up your life
and just kiss me - let it feel so....

I can't go on living our love only a dream
I wanna rise up everyday and know forever's where I'll be with you
And I want to remember this taste of ecstasy
Your rhythm raps around me, the way you make me scream...

Ch: Can you kiss me
you know you're aching to
Can you kiss me
Your heart is telling you
Will you keep on running
Or will you open up your life
With my arms around you, You know you can't deny
I live and breathe and die for you for everyday and every night

When you kiss me, whoah
When you kiss me, oh yeah
When you kiss me, whoah
When you kiss me, oh yeah
