I'm staring at this clock
Wishing I could turn back time.
To...Let's say...the summer
Of Nineteen Eighty Nine.
I just remembered something
I frankly failed to do.
And should have done at the time
I first thought to Kiss you.
What could have, that simple kiss become?
That simple kiss, that went left undone
A simple kiss from me to you
Just a simple kiss... or... two.
I am staring at the hands on this clock
Dreaming of how life could have been.
If only I garnered the courage
To Kiss you back then.
