Don`t matter if the road is long
Don`t matter if it`s steep
Don`t matter if the moon is gone
And the darkness is complete
Don`t matter if we lose our way
It`s written that we`ll meet
At least, that`s what I heard you say
A thousand kisses deep
I loved you when you opened
Like a lily to the heat
You see, I`m just another snowman
Standing in the rain and sleet
Who loved you with his frozen love
His second hand physique
With all he is and all he was
A thousand kisses deep
I know you had to lie to me
I know you had to cheat
You learned it on your father`s knee
And at your mother`s feet
But did you have to fight your way
Across the burning street
When all our vital interests lay
A thousand kisses deep
I`m turning tricks
I`m getting fixed
I`m back on boogie street
I`d like to quit the business
But I`m in it, so to speak
The thought of you is peaceful
And the file on you complete
Except what I forgot to do
A thousand kisses deep
Don`t matter if you`re rich and strong
Don`t matter if you`re weak
Don`t matter if you write a song
The nightingales repeat
Don`t matter if it`s nine to five
Or timeless and unique
You ditch your life to stay alive
A thousand kisses deep
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 summon now to deal with your invincible defeat
You live your life as if it`s real
A thousand kisses deep
I hear their voices in the wine
That sometimes did me seek
The band is playing Auld Lang Syne
But the heart will not retreat
There`s no forsaking what you love
No existential leap
As witnessed here in time and blood
A thousand kisses deep
