[She:] I was never kissed before
in that kind of way:
If you kissed me any more
I should run away.
We must part, but all my heart
with you will remain
I was never kissed before
But kiss me once again.

Now that I know
what I never knew
Now that I know all the Poets are true.
Now that I know
there is no one but you
Kiss me
you must kiss me
once again.

[She:] I was never kissed before
in that kind of way:
If you kissed me any more
I should run away.
We must part, but all my heart
with you will remain
I was never kissed before
But kiss me once again.

[He:] You were never kissed before?
You must learn the way:
I did not exist before,
waiting for today.
Have no fear of love, my dear,
roses love the rain
you were never kissed before
so kiss me once again.

Now that I know
what I never knew
Now that I know all the Poets are true.
Now that I know
there is no one but you
Kiss me
you must kiss me
once again.

[He:] You were never kissed before?
You must learn the way:
I did not exist before,
waiting for today.
Have no fear of love, my dear,
roses love the rain
you were never kissed before
so kiss me once again.
