Bought me a rose with a broken stem I should have known that our sad fate was sealed just then And though I tried to pretend A whiskey gla** fell to the floor But I remained so optimistic, though I was dreaming of more As he showed himself the door My one-kiss wonder Some things come but never stay My one-kiss wonder Kissed me once and ran away But for that moment in time I thought his heart was mine My one-kiss wonder I saw his blue eyes undress me But how could I ever have known that he was only a tease? I'm way too easy to please Blew out the candles and turned down the lights
But there was something in the air that must have said "Almost, not quite" As he forever said good night My one-kiss wonder Some things come but never stay My one-kiss wonder Kissed me once and ran away But for that moment in time I thought his heart was mine My one-kiss wonder We came so close High hopes, high hopes In every way, he was a 10 He never did call me again My one-kiss wonder La-de-da-de-da-de-da My one-kiss wonder It would have been worth his while to stay But for that moment in time I thought his heart, it was mine My one-kiss wonder I'll always wonder
