Kiss Me Idle Lyrics - Singles - Verve Pipe

Roses died in dirty water held up by the vase 

Once a gift good-bye, now remind me to replace 

Hardened petals bang the dresser when they fall away 

Kiss me idle 

Kiss me without make-up, leave no marks upon my chest 

Kiss me for no other reason then to give your eyes a rest 

Kiss me slow and breathe me lifeless, let this all digest 

Kiss me idle 

Slowly, slowly, the longer it takes, the better mistakes 

We end up stumbling on 

I wouldn't want to leave upon your tongue a sour taste 

Leave it foiled and disappointed, wanted to be chased 

A mouth that's open wide and speechless, seems like such a waste 

Kiss me idle 

One time lazy, another time dear 

Despite all your fears of outlasting my love 

I can't afford the stubborn sleep on photographs of birthdays past 

So close your eyes and catch your breath and I will wait right here 

Tied my fingers to remind me to leave you every day 

While my hair is growing white, the strings are turning gray 

And one by one they come undone until they fall away 

Kiss me idle 

Kiss me idle
