stealing kisses

Lyrics

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 he tells you all he'll see you later, 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, don't you know who i am, 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, and you haven't talked to one adult all day, except your neighbor who drives you crazy, when he finally gets in he's sure, not in the mood for talking, and 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 the high school doors, the ones you walked out of twenty years before, and you whisper to all of 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, don't you know who i am, take a look at who i am, take a look at who i am, i'm stealing kisses, stealing kisses
