Lyrics The Kiss of Life - The Dear Hunter

Hope was closing with my eyes, down a shallow grave I was lying
Then I heard someone say, "He'll be stuck here forever"
But I prayed it wasn't forever
'Cause you were leaning over me, clutching memories of when I was alive
And then you breathed life into me one last time
But I prayed it wasn't the last time

Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I live for
I'm only echoes of the man that I'm supposed to be
Because I want more of the things I'd die for
I want to feel it in my soul
In my soul

Now that you've unburied me, dust me off and carry me home
And I beg you sing life to me again
I promise this won't happen again

Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I live for
I'm only echoes of the man that I'm supposed to be
Because I want more of the things I'd die for
I want to feel it in my soul
In my soul

'Cause it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

Give me more than the things that I live for
I'm only echoes of the man that I'm supposed to be
Because I want more of the things I'd die for
I want to feel it in my soul
In my soul
