Kiss Me Like You Mean It

I long to taste your lips on mine

To feel raw passions flame

Even if I know at night

You whisper another’s name

Just act like you mean it

Though we both know it’s not true

We play pretend to pass the time

It helps us both get through

Tonight I really need to feel

It seems that it’s been years

Even if after we’re both through

I’m left alone with tears

So kiss me like you mean it

Swear I’m the spark that lights your flame

Let’s while away the hours

Get a reprieve from all our pain.
