Hold on to get higher
Than I could make it alone so I will never regret
But let go and know a desire
That I can't remember how to forget

The closer I stand to the candle
The hotter I want it to burn
Gain knowledge through years and wisdom through tears
But when am I gonna learn

Bittersweet lipstick on my mind
Let me taste it one more time
Tomorrow's golden sunrise will leave tonight behind
Just one more kiss and I'll be fine

I told all of the others
To get out of the way as I started to fall
If I can't be holding my lover
Than I'd rather have nothing at all

The paler the sky grows at dawning
The harder to part with the night
Though the slumber was deep and the dreaming was sweet
I still try to hide from the light

Bittersweet lipstick on my mind
Let me taste it one more time
Tomorrow's golden sunrise will leave tonight behind
Just one more kiss and I'll be fine
