  • Do you remember when we were just kids
    And cardboard boxes took us miles from what we would miss?
    School yard conversations taken to heart
    And laughter took the place of everything we knew we were not

    I want to break every clock
    The hands of time could never move again
    We could stay in this moment for the rest of our lives
    Is it over now, hey, hey, is it over now?

    I want to be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
    I want to be your last first kiss

    Amazing how life turns out the way that it does
    We end up hurting the worst, the only ones we really love

    I want to break every clock
    The hands of time could never move again
    We could stay in this moment for the rest of our lives
    Is it over now, hey, hey, is it over now?

    I want to be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
    I want to be your last first kiss

    Is it over now, hey, hey, is it over now?
    Is it over now? Hey, hey, it's not over now

    I want to be your last first kiss that you'll ever have
    I want to be your last first love that you'll ever have
    Lying here beside me, palms and eyes open wide
    I want to be your last first kiss for all time Writer/s: DEON REXROAT, JOSEPH MILLIGAN, NATHAN YOUNG, STEPHEN ARNOLD
