Almond Kisses
Spacehog Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slow breeze slipping through my fingers
Cold dreams ejected from my mind
Wet face pressed against a window
A neon tear illuminates the sign

Almond kisses, almond kisses
Best kiss you ever had
Almond kisses, almond kisses
Come back
Back to me
Back to me
Back to me

Boy's breath is humid to the nipple
As Conscience: she topples to the floor
Ice, cold, tingles in the morning
As Passion: she sparks the fire for more

Almond kisses, almond kisses
Best kiss you ever had
Almond kisses, almond kisses
Come back
Back to me
Back to me
Come back to me

So be (slipping) strong
You can't go
You can't go
You can't go wrong

So be (slipping) strong
You can't go
You can't go
You can't go wrong

You can't go worng




You can't go wrong
You can't go worng

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Spacehog's song Almond Kisses exude a deep longing for the return of a lost love. The singer is experiencing a deep emotional pain, which is evident from the imagery depicted in the lyrics. The lines "Slow breeze slipping through my fingers" and "Wet face pressed against a window" create a sense of sadness and desperation. The singer is desperate to reconnect with someone who has left and is looking for any indication of their return, as shown in "A neon tear illuminates the sign."


The "Almond Kisses" mentioned in the chorus is a metaphor for the singer's past relationship. These kisses must be particularly special since they are referred to as "the best kiss you ever had." The singer implores their partner to "come back to me" because they are the only thing that can alleviate the singer's feelings of loneliness and despair.


The second verse uses sensual imagery to convey the passion and intensity of the relationship. The lines "Boy's breath is humid to the nipple" and "As Passion: she sparks the fire for more" create a vivid picture of a steamy, physical relationship. However, the despair of the first verse continues to permeate the song. The line "As Conscience: she topples to the floor" suggests that the intense relationship led to the end of it.


Overall, the song is a soulful expression of a deep emotional pain, and it captures the listener's attention with its poignant and passionate lyrics.
