It's just another story
Of boy meets girl
They fell in love
Were each other�s worlds

But the time was short
The place not right
So they walked away
No kiss goodnight

They boy went away
The girl moved on
But there were bigger plans
That God had drawn

They met again
To their delight
But once again
No kiss goodnight

Her head said "NO!"
Her heart beat fast
She prayed each night
The love would last

Still they longed
To win this fight
But both went on
With no kiss goodnight

So many things
Held them back
She was born white
His shell was black

Forced again
He left her sight
And both went to bed
With no kiss goodnight

They started talking
More and more
From the Apron Strings
Away she tore

All she'd wanted
All he'd missed
Was to have the love
And the goodnight kiss.
