[Verse 1]
If you respect me, don't protect me
You can tell me; I can handle it
Stop pretending, 'cause we're going down
If you let go, then just let go
It's disrespectful how you've handled this
Never ending, kinda run around

[Pre-Chorus]
I lied to my heart, 'cause I thought you felt it
You can't light a fire if the candle's melted
No, you don't have to love me if you don't wanna
Don't act like I mean nothing, but if you're gonna
Well, then you better

[Chorus]
Un-kiss me, un-touch me, un-take this heart
And I'm missing just one thing: a brand new start

[Verse 2]
Can't erase this, can't delete this
I don't need this, I can't handle it
I just feel it that you're over us
Oh, if I wait here, if I see you
It won't matter, what's the point of this?
We're in pieces, because you're over us, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I lied to my heart, 'cause I thought you felt it
You can't light a fire if the candle's melted
No, you don't have to love me if you don't wanna
Don't act like I mean nothing, but if you're gonna
Well, then you better

[Chorus]
Un-kiss me, un-touch me, un-take this heart
And I'm missing just one thing: a brand new start

[Post-Chorus]
So, un-kiss me
So, un-kiss me
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
So, baby, let go, gotta let go
It's disrespectful, I can't handle this
Never ending, kinda run around
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Un-kiss me (Un-kiss me)
Un-touch me (Oh)
Un-take this heart
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I'm missing (I'm missing)
Just one thing
A brand new start (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
So, un-kiss me (Oh, oh, oh-yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, oh)
So, un-kiss me (Oh, oh, oh-yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, oh)
Un-kiss me

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
