A Thousand Kisses Deep - Ann Wilson, Ben Mink

The ponies run, the girls are young

The odds are there to beat

You win a while, and then it's done –

Your little winning streak

And summoned now to deal

With your invincible defeat

You live your life as if it's real

A thousand kisses deep

I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed

I'm back on boogie street

You lose your grip, and then you slip

Into the masterpiece

And maybe I had miles to drive

And promises to keep

You ditch it all to stay alive

A thousand kisses deep

And sometimes when the night is slow

The wretched and the meek

We gather up our hearts and go

A thousand kisses deep

Confined to sex, we pressed against

The limits of the sea

I saw there were no oceans left

For scavengers like me

I made it to the forward deck

I blessed our remnant fleet

And then consented to be wrecked

A thousand kisses deep

I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed

I'm back on boogie street

I guess they won't exchange the gifts

That you were meant to keep

And quiet is the thought of you

The file on you complete

Except what we forgot to do

A thousand kisses deep

And sometimes when the night is slow

The wretched and the meek

We gather up our hearts and go

A thousand kisses deep

The ponies run, the girls are young

The odds are there to beat
