Cherry Red Kiss

She had a little black dress
and high heel shoes
Her lips were cherry red
The band was swinging, the gringos were grinning, she got inside my head...
She was a sweet señorita sipping on a margarita, had me in the palm of her hand...
I knew she was trouble, so I ordered a double, and I asked her if she wanted to dance...

I don't remember much but I knew it was best
All she left on my lips was a cherry red kiss
I never saw her again but I always miss
that taste on my lips of a cherry red kiss.

I've been asking around from town to town, from east coast to the west
No one has seen her, my sweet bonita
I'm walking like a man who's dead
I thought I have seen her like a ghost in the mirror, is it real or just a dream?
It's hard to swallow see the lipstick on my collar
Nothing is what it seems

I don't remember much but I knew it was best
All she left on my lips was a cherry red kiss
I never saw her again but I always miss
that taste on my lips of a cherry red kiss

I got a letter threw the other day.
(What did it, what did it say?)
It said, meet me at midnight underneath the moonlight
And she sealed it (sealed it, sealed it, sealed it...)

I don't remember much but I knew it was best
All she left on my lips was a cherry red kiss
I never saw her again but I always miss
that taste on my lips of a cherry red kiss, red kiss...
