Stealing Kisses
It's late enough all you kids should be home The policeman says as he takes your beer for his own You remember wondering what his wife Thought about his occupation He knows that you were just chasing a dream To the town line and then back and over again So he winks at you girls And he tells you all he'll see you later I was stealing kisses from a boy Now I'm begging affection from a man In my housedress don't you know who I am Don't you know who I am Standing in your kitchen It's late enough your husband's dinner is cold So you wrap it up and leave it for him on the stove It's probably the traffic again Or another important meeting And you haven't talked to one adult all day Except your neighbor who drives you crazy When he finally gets in he's sure Not in the mood for talking SongtexteAnd hours become days, and days become years And you could burn down this town If they made matches from fear But you're no worse off than anybody else Hey don't you even know Don't you even know yourself So you're standing outside the high school doors The ones you walked out of twenty years before And you whisper to all of the girls, run, run, run I was stealing kisses from a boy Now I'm begging affection from a man In my housedress don't you know who I am Don't you know who I am Take a look at who I am Take a look at who I am I'm stealing kisses Stealing kisses Aus Songtexte Mania
