Kiss Me
Album: Sixpence None The Richer
Year: 1999
Leigh Nash caresses her lover’s face with the touch of her lips in the enchanting “Kiss Me.”
Breezy guitars open the guitar, setting a whimsical tone. In the first verse, she asks her boyfriend to embrace her in the fields of bearded barely. She suggests they get a blanket and look at the stars. She says they can sit close on the porch swing. She will have a flowing, floral summer dress and he will wear his loafers.
In the chorus, she says they can kiss underneath an evening sky. She asks him to dance outside on the grass. She wants to reach out to her and instruct the band to play. The world around them will become alive with excitement and happiness, including the insects. She says the perfectly round moon is shining for them. It’s the right moment to give her a kiss.
In the second verse, she says they can run off to his old tree house and sneak a peck. He can push her on the black, worn tire hanging on a tree branch. He can also lend her his hat and go on an adventure, while walking his dad’s property.
The sweet guitar has an intimate solo, as they look into each other eyes. Then, it becomes joyous as their lips meet.
The chorus is sung once to end the single.
Nash is completely in love. In her past relationships, ideal situations would be out of reach and met with scorn. But with him, all she has to do is make the suggestion. Then, on her next date, he has planned out a romantic day for her with her ideas. It’s an all-consuming love and she can’t get enough of him.
Her covetous, radiant vocals pink a light rose at the slight mention of him. She has never been as happy as she is with him. It’s more than summer romance.
The sunny arrangement glows and is warm to the touch.
The rapturous “Kiss Me” is a perfect ode to infatuation.

“Kiss me out of the bearded barley/Nightly, beside the green, green grass/Swing, swing, swing the spinning step/You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.”

“Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight/Lead me out on the moonlit floor/Lift your open hand/Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance/Silver moon's sparkling/So kiss me.”
In the second verse, she says they can run off to his old tree house and sneak a peck. He can push her on the black, worn tire hanging on a tree branch. He can also lend her his hat and go on an adventure, while walking his dad’s property.
“Kiss me down by the broken tree house/Swing me upon its hanging tire/Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat/We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.”
