It Started With A Kiss Lyrics
It started with a kiss, in the back row of the classroom
How could I resist the aroma of your perfume
You and I were inseparable, it was love at first sight
You made me promise to marry you, I made you promise to be my bride
But then you were only eight years old and I had just about turned nine
I thought that life was always good, I thought you always would be mine
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
I remember every little thing, like fighting in the playgournd
Cos some good looking boy had started to hang around
That boy hurt me so bad but I was happy 'cause you cried
Still I couldn't help but notice that new distant look in your eyes
And then when you were sixteen I had just turned seventeen
I couldn't hold on to your love, I couldn't hold on to my dream
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
You don't remember me do you?
You don't remember me do you?
Walking down the streets again, the star of my love story
And my heart began to beat so fast, so clear was my memory
I heard my voice cry out your name as she looked and looked away
I felt so hurt, I felt so small, it was all that I could say
You don't remember me do you?
You don't remember me do you?
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
How could I resist the aroma of your perfume
You and I were inseparable, it was love at first sight
You made me promise to marry you, I made you promise to be my bride
But then you were only eight years old and I had just about turned nine
I thought that life was always good, I thought you always would be mine
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
Cos some good looking boy had started to hang around
That boy hurt me so bad but I was happy 'cause you cried
Still I couldn't help but notice that new distant look in your eyes
And then when you were sixteen I had just turned seventeen
I couldn't hold on to your love, I couldn't hold on to my dream
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this
You don't remember me do you?
And my heart began to beat so fast, so clear was my memory
I heard my voice cry out your name as she looked and looked away
I felt so hurt, I felt so small, it was all that I could say
You don't remember me do you?
It started with a kiss, I never thought it would come to this

The story of a childhood sweetheart growing up and growing apart. He sees her several years later on the streets. He shouts across the street to her but she doesn't remember him.
"You don't remember me do you?"
A very sad story :(
"You don't remember me do you?" has to be one of the most crushing heart breaking lines in pop music. His love for his childhood sweet heart is still there as strong as ever, unforgotten with a hope that somehow it will return if he meets her again like in some romantic movie. The reality when it happens is very different, he means so little to her that she simply doesn't remember him at all. Unrequited love is a terrible but beautiful thing to experience.
