I was feeling down, beneath a frown Just like a plane that can't get off the ground I couldn't face the climb I was all alone until you phoned How did you know that I was sitting home? Sometimes I wonder bout your timing We went out drinking And before I started thinking much too hard You played your wild card..... You were sitting there, you had the chair There was a little heaven in the air Your hair was like a halo Then you leaned so close and I supposed You wanted to whisper something so I froze Held my breath upon your say so I closed my eyes And suddenly I realised Right on time, the moment that your mouth touched mine... I Caught The Common Kiss The one that's going round Caught the Common Kiss Now it's all over town I'll pass it on to someone else but only when it's time to Cos I caught the common kiss from you Now I'm not the same, I have no shame Just like a starlet who's in search of fame I'd do anything I'll stay in bed, forget the bread I'll ring up work and I'll sound like I'm dead I've lost my head, remembering I closed my eyes And suddenly I realised Who was boss, when your mouth was right where mine was.... I Caught The Common Kiss The one that's going round Caught the Common Kiss Now it's all over town I'll pass it on to someone else but only when it's time to Cos I caught the common kiss from you
