It was the summer of our lives.
We were too young to realize
What love was.
We were far too innocent.

But we had something, the two of us.
We had had big plans. Baby, we had trust.
I said, "I don't know. I can't be sure,
But it feels like love."

It started with a kiss, an innocent kiss,
A boy and a girl on a hot summer night.
It ended with a lie.
Kiss your heart goodbye. Whoa, yeah.

Now, I grew restless, feeling tied down.
I thought growing up meant getting out.
I said, "I'm sorry, Annie,
But I'll come back for you."

We had something, you and me.
We had had big plans. Baby, we had dreams.
I said, "I don't know. I can't be sure,
But it feels like love."

It started with a kiss, an innocent kiss,
A boy and a girl on a hot summer night.
It ended with a lie.
Kiss your heart goodbye. Yeah!

I'm on the back streets, feeling lonely.
I drove all night under the street lights.
Your memory is coming back to me
Over and over again.

It started with a kiss, an innocent kiss,
A boy and a girl on a hot summer night.
It ended with a lie.
Kiss your heart goodbye.

It started with a kiss, an innocent kiss,
A boy and a girl on a hot summer night.
It ended with a lie.
Kiss your heart goodbye.

It started with a kiss.
