The Kiss
Pallers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If it wasn't a kiss
Then I don't know what it was

If it wasn't a kiss
If it wasn't a kiss
Then I don't know what it was
What it was

If it wasn't alright
I don't if it ever will be

If it wasn't alright
I don't know what will ever be
Alright

It's a girl I've been waiting for
And I know that I can find someone
And not a half a year could rest me

It's a girl I've been waiting for

And I know that you're inside of me
Always

Overall Meaning

In Pallers's song "The Kiss," the singer is reflecting on a romantic encounter that they had with someone. The lyrics are simple and repetitive, but their underlying meaning is complex. The repetition of the phrase "If it wasn't a kiss, then I don't know what it was" suggests that the singer is unsure about what happened between them, perhaps because the kiss was unexpected or didn't conform to their expectations. This uncertainty is echoed in the line "If it wasn't alright, I don't know if it ever will be," which suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with what happened and is uncertain about how to proceed.

The second half of the song is more declarative, with the singer stating that the person they kissed is someone they have been waiting for, and that they know this person is inside of them. These lines suggest that the singer has a deep connection with the person they kissed, and that this connection is somehow spiritual or emotional rather than physical. Overall, "The Kiss" is a haunting and introspective song that explores themes of uncertainty, longing, and connection.

Line by Line Meaning

If it wasn't a kiss
If that wasn't a kiss, then I'm not sure what it could have been

Then I don't know what it was
I'm at a loss for words to describe that moment

If it wasn't alright
If that moment wasn't good or acceptable to you

I don't know what will ever be
You may never be satisfied with anything better than that moment

It's a girl I've been waiting for
This moment involved a girl who holds great importance to me

And I know that you're inside of me
I have strong feelings for this girl that are deeply ingrained in my soul

Always
Those feelings will never fade away
