You just have to be sure you're doing the right thing   I mean it's very easy to forget   She's just sitting there in the pub with her new friends   And her new life and her new hair   And it's been five years but you'd know just to look at her      I wasn't even sure it were her at first   I was ready to walk away but she smiled   And called me over and we said hello for a bit   When we back to our tables      We were trying not to look over at each other   And told our friends to stop staring   I didn't see her for the rest of the night   But by closing time the beer's kicked in      So I go up and speak to her   And we end up talking about our new homes   Our new jobs and our new birds      She says she's been going out with him now   For about two and a half years   But they don't live together so he'd never find out   And you think about chasing her about school      When you were wee and lying in your bed   And listening to love songs   And pretending they were about you   And the first time you asked her out      She said no but one night you went to a wedding   And when you came back to the pub   She's changed her mind and you went out   You remember the way she swung her arms      When she held your hand   But you can't remember how she kissed   And now you've got the chance to find out      But you have to remember there's this other kiss   She's at home, wondering where you are and what you're doing   And you work hard on this kiss and you know it inside out   It's as much yours as it is hers      And it took a long time to get right   It took months of practice   And months of embarrassment but now you've got it perfected   And you've been looking forward to that kiss all week      You can see her breath in the air   Between your faces as you stand in the leaves   And she just asks you straight out   If you want to come and stay at her flat      But you make sure you get separate taxis   And you go home and there might be a slight regret   And you might wonder what you missed   But you have to remember the kiss you worked so hard on   And you'll know you've done the right thing
