Stealing Kisses
Stealing Kisses (Sung by Faith Hill)
It's late enough all you kids should be home
The policeman says as he takes your beer for his own
You remember wondering what his wife
Thought about his occupation
He knows that you were just chasing a dream
To the town line and then back and over again
So he winks at you girls
And tells you all, "I'll see you later"
[chorus]
I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my housedress (don't you know who I am) x2
Standing in your kitchen
It's late enough your husband's dinner is cold
So you wrap it up and leave it for him on the stove
It's probably the traffic again
Or another important meeting
You haven't talked to an adult all day
'cept for your neighbour who drives you crazy
When he finally gets in he's sure not in the mood for talking
[chorus]
I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my housedress (don't you know who I am) x2
I'm standing in your kitchen
Hours become days and days become years
And you could burn down this town
If they made matches from fear
But you're no worse off than anybody else
Hey don't you even know, don't you even know yourself?
So you're standing outside your high school door
The ones you walked through twenty years before
And you whisper to all the girls, run, run, run
I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my housedress (don't you know who I am) x2
(Take a look at who I am) x2, I'm (stealing kisses) x2
Every time I play this song I start crying. I cry for all those women who stay at home and yet deserve better. Tears stream down my face. All those faded dreams; being married to a man who has no idea what it is like to see your life drifting away from what you thought it would be.
There are so many things that men just do not understand or are even aware of until mostly it's too late. Those of you who have married a sensitive man are just so, so lucky.
My advice to any young woman in a relationship is that they look very, very carefully at exactly what they are getting. There's a saying that I often think of when talking to people with failed marriages: As soon as you are married, a women wants to change a man into what she wants and a man just wants a woman to stay the same as the one he married.
If I had to bring it down to defining it in one word I'd have to say, ‘appreciation'.
If you want a good cry then download the song from the internet and play it along with the words and you'll feel the heart wrenching agony in Faith's voice. A desperate cry for help and understanding.
