Would You Have Kissed Me Anyway?

We drank and sang until the dawn

I hoped you would be there

If you had been, I wondered

Would you have kissed me anyway?

I found you in the morning

We’d both been up all night

If we’d kissed then I wondered

If jealousy would’ve started a fight

…and it did

You walked off when the cops came

It was like my favorite dream

When I saw you standing near the falls

And heard your laugh in the stream

I walked on down to touch you

If the cops hadn’t chased us away

When I tried to take your hand

Would you have kissed me anyway?
