about

This is a little sketch about a forgetful, sort of neanderthal, perhaps "hard luck" fella who happens to be with a very understanding woman. Not that either of us would know anything about that...

lyrics

THE DAY WE KISSED
-------------------------

Morning coffee in my alcohol
Eggs and shame should hit the spot
And of all the things I can't recall
Baby I almost forgot

Oh I ran to meet you so we could talk about us
My damn car busted and I had to ride the bus
Well I barely missed you and I knew that you were pissed
Why can't we just go back to
The day we kissed

In every way you know I fit the bill
I was born to hold your hand
Sometimes I am just an imbecile
How's that hard to understand

Well there is no reason and there isn't any why
This operator is forever standing by
And I'm strong yet soft like a gorilla in the mist
And you lost your mind about me
The day we kissed

So the love that we know let it be let it flow
Like the passing of day into night
You're the check to my mate there is little debate
And did I mention you're always right

Oh it's been three days and I've been counting every breath
My heart's been hollering and beating me to death
But I hear you knocking with your sweet forgiving fist

And you wrap your arms around me
You're always there to ground me
And I knew that love had found me
The day we kissed
