Last Kiss - Zachary Richard

Two children playing on a dusty road

Barefoot running in the yard

Hide from the fire of the summer sun

In the shade of the old Bois d'arc

Days when we first held hands

Days of the locust's call

Until the children's games

Came to an end

Until they tore us apart

Why can't they leave us alone

Why can't they see things our way

We ain't done nothing wrong

Give me one last kiss

Every night I have

The very same dream

I hear the lonesome whistle blow

I always wake up

When I hear the scream

Somebody that I used to know

Why can't they leave us alone

Why can't they see things our way

We ain't done nothing wrong

Give me one last kiss

Give me one last kiss

Before the darkness comes

Well the rain is falling harder

Than a bullet

And the Hound dog barking

Getting closer all the time

Footprints fresh

On the bank of the bayou

Lightning flashing make the water shine

Water's cold and the current is pulling

I'm swimming in the middle

Of a pitch black stream

My body's getting tired

And my spirit's getting weaker

Somewhere in the distance

I can hear the scream

Why don't they leave us alone

Why can't they see things our way

We ain't done nothing wrong

Give me one last kiss

Why don't they leave us alone

Why can't they see things our way

We ain't done nothing wrong

Give me one last kiss

Give me one last kiss

Give me one last kiss

Before the darkness comes

Before the darkness comes

Before the darkness comes
