The Kiss of Life - The Dear Hunter

Hope was closing with my eyes

Down the shallow grave I was lying

Then I heard someone say, «He'll be stuck here forever»

But I prayed it wasn’t forever

'Cause you were leaning over me

Clutching memories of when I was alive

And then you breathed life into me one last time

But I prayed it wasn’t the last time

Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I’ve lived for

I’m only echoes of the man that I’m supposed to be

Because I want more of the things that I’d die for

I want to feel it in my soul

In my soul

Now that you’ve unburied me

Dust me off and carry me home

And I beg you sing life to me again

I promise this won’t happen again

Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I lived for

I’m only echoes of the man that I’m supposed to be

Because I want more of the things that I’d die for

I want to feel it in my soul

In my soul

It would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I lived for

I’m only echoes of the man that I’m supposed to be

Because I want more of the things that I’d die for

I want to feel it in my soul

In my soul
