Here is a response to the question that went unanswered. I came up with the concept for this song after repeatedly reading the question. I started to wonder why I asked about the first kiss, rather than the last kiss. Then, I realized in some very unfortunate situations, the first and last kiss are one in the same. I penned some of the verses randomly for a few days. I sat down with the guitar at 4 pm yesterday and had this song recorded by 4:45.
First/last kiss
The good thing about whisky
is you only remember the fun.
The bad thing about whisky
is you only remember the fun.
And I don’t remember your name, darlin,
or where you said you were from.
And I wish I could get you out of my head
cause I’ll never see you again.
But that first kiss
had everything a man could wish for.
Your breath was sweet
and warm in my mouth.
I only wish I’d known
that that first kiss would be our last.
Now my friends say you are a ghost—
that I left alone.
But I know my imagination ain’t good enough
to have made you up.
And, darlin, I can’t remember your name
or where you said you were from.
And I wish I could forget you
cause I’ll never see you again.
But that first kiss
had everything a man could wish for.
Your breath was sweet
and warm in my mouth.
I only wish I’d known
that that first kiss would be our last.
