This is the art of kissing your best friend
Here�s to wishing that this never ends
Kisses like promises that will always be
Despite what you�ve heard about boys like me

Your words were your alibis (your alibis)
The greatest stories of all time
Always end with goodbye (of all time always end with goodbye)
Your words, they made me this (made me this)
The greatest stories of all time
Always start with a kiss (of all time always start with a kiss)

Your eyes like knives that stab through my heart
Cross out my eyes while you rip me apart
Your kisses like fire, they burn through me
Best friends kiss like eternity

Your words were your alibis (your alibis)
The greatest stories of all time
Always end with goodbye (of all time always end with goodbye)
Your words, they made me this (made me this)
The greatest stories of all time
Always start with a kiss (of all time always start with a kiss)

This is the art of kissing (BEST FRIENDS!)
This is the art of kissing (BEST FRIENDS!)
This is the art of kissing (BEST FRIENDS!)

Your words were your alibis (your alibis)
The greatest stories of all time
Always end with goodbye (of all time always end with goodbye)
Your words, they made me this (made me this)
The greatest stories of all time
Always start with a kiss (of all time always start with a kiss)

BEST FRIENDS!!!
(repeat till end)

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
