Last Kiss
"Last Kiss" is a song released by Wayne Cochran in 1961 on the Gala label. It failed to do well on the charts. Cochran subsequently re-recorded his song for the King label in 1963. It was later revived by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers, Pearl Jam and several international artists, including the Canadian group Wednesday, with varying degrees of success. The song was one of several teen tragedy songs from that period. The song's opening lyrics mirror the opening lyrics of Septimus Winner's "Der Deitcher's Dog".
The song's story
The singer borrows his father's car to take his beloved sweetheart out on a romantic date (on a rainy night). Coming across a stalled car in the road, the singer swerves to the right to avoid it, losing control and crashing violently in the process. The crash renders both the singer and his girlfriend unconscious. The singer later regains consciousness and finds several people at the scene of the accident, but was able to find his girlfriend, still lying unconscious. When the singer cradles his girlfriend lovingly in his arms, she regains partial consciousness, smiling and asking the singer to "hold me, darling, just a little while." The singer then gives his sweetheart what would be their "last romantic kiss" as she fades into death and enters the afterlife.
Last Kiss (Tanpopo song)
"Last Kiss" (ラストキッス) is the debut single of Morning Musume's first subgroup, Tanpopo. It was released on November 18, 1998, as an 8 cm CD under the Zetima Records with a catalog number, EPDE-1014. The song was later featured in the group's first album Tanpopo 1 (along with the album version of it) and in their second album All of Tanpopo. It was also featured as the first ending theme to the anime Sorcerous Stabber Orphen. It reached number two on the Japan Oricon charts.
In 2002, an English-language cover was recorded by Charlotte (from Soul II Soul) for the album Cover Morning Musume Hello! Project!.

English Translation
The burning red sunset takes away the words in heart
Time stood still, just like the depth of my feelings.
With a single word, my journey without you begins tomorrow.
IT'S BITTER LIKE BEER FOR KIDS
You kissed my tiny fingers
I'll never forget you
Even though were apart
I'll always remember our last kiss
In the beginning, everyone starts out a pure and innocent BABY
Even though it's a bitter taste, don't get discouraged and WALK STRAIGHT
You leaving me alone in the middle of the rain is heartbreaking
I'M LONELY AS FLOATING ICE
You kissed my tiny fingers
I won't forget that warmth
Even though we're apart
I'll always remember your kiss
Even when we didn't understand each other, we can assure we were like a good story
Who or what can I blame
just don't taint the things we loved
You kissed my tiny fingers
I'll never forget you
I hope whenever we meet again,
we can forget about that last kiss
When you kissed my tiny fingers,
I remember when you cried.
Even though this is the end
I'll never forget the last kiss
I'll never forget
I'll never forget
his kiss
