Analysis of I Should Have Kissed Her More
I Should Have Kissed Her More
I wish I never raised my voice
I wish I lived the lore
I wish I offered greater choice
I should have kissed her more
I wish I never sought each win
I wish I cut the score
I wish I bothered to give in
I should have kissed her more
I wish I never strayed so long
I wish I held the door
I wish I sang some other song
I should have kissed her more
