I've Never Been Kissed Like That Before

I thought that after all my searching
there could be nothing left to find
I thought that after all my dreaming
I'd left all hope behind

I thought the cold cold temperature of life
was never gonna get much higher
but when I tasted loving from your lips
I felt my body turn to fire

I was suddenly taken, I was suddenly shaken
I was suddenly fifty feet off the floor
I was suddenly crying, I was suddenly flying
high in the air, oh to God I swear
I've never been kissed like that before

I thought discovery was over
I thought that nothing could surprise
and anyone who said that love had more in store
was simply telling lies
I thought the scratchpen writing out my life
was all run out of revelations
but what you gave me in that first embrace
confounded all my expectations

I was suddenly taken, I was suddenly shaken
I was suddenly fifty feet off the floor
I was suddenly crying, I was suddenly flying
high in the air, oh to God I swear
I've never been kissed like that before

such a miracle sensation
such a mystic revelation

no more the cynical rejecter
still stuck inside an ivory tower
you've rung my bell, I'm breaking out my shell
cos now love's given me the power

I was suddenly taken, I was suddenly shaken
I was suddenly fifty feet off the floor
I was suddenly crying, I was suddenly flying
high in the air, oh to God I swear
I've never been kissed like that before
