Song title: Then she kissed me

(Spector, Greenwich, Barry) by The Crystals (Philles 115), 1963

Then she kissed me

She walked up to me and ask if I wanted to dance
She looked kinda fine so I tought that I just might take that chance
And when we danced she held me tight
Well I want to hold that night
With her with me, the moon so bright...
And then she kissed me
The first time I saw her I knew I had to see her again
And that we were gonna be so much more than just friends
I didn’t know just what to do,
So I whispered “I love you”
She said that she loved me too...
And she kissed me
She kissed me in a way I’ve never been kissed before
She kissed me in a way I wanna be kissed forever more
I knew that she was mine so I gave her all the love that I had
But I ain’t that kind of guy she could take home to meet her dad
Run with me and I’ll make you my bride
She was so happy that she almost cried
Then I pulled her by my side
And she kissed me
She walked up to me and ask if I wanted to dance
She looked kinda fine so I tought that I just might take that chance
I said :“Run with me and I’ll make you my bride”
She was so happy that she almost cried
Then I pulled her by my side
And she kissed me
And then she kissed me…
