Lyrics I remember when I first noticed that you liked me back We were sitting down in a restaurant, waiting for the check We had made love earlier that day with no strings attached But I could tell that something had changed, how you looked at me then [Chorus] Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you To slip back in bed When you light the candle [Verse 2] And on the Lower East Side, you're dancing with me now And I'm taking pictures of you with flowers on the wall Think I like you best when you're dressed in black from head to toe Think I like you best when you're just with me and no one else [Chorus] Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you To slip back in bed When you light the candle [Verse 3] And I'm kissing you, lying in my room Holding you until you fall asleep And it's just as good as I knew it would be Stay with me, I don't want you to leave Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you To slip back in bed When you light the candle About K. standing for Kristen, the name of the singers partner, the song describes the singer longing for their lovers physical presence in a long-distance relationship, after having recently spent time together and departing from one another
