otherwise you're really going to have to keep kissing me


Explanation:
I disagree with Ulrike, "noch" in this context would be literally "still kissing" or "yet kissing", which implies that the lucky boy or girl had already kissed, so that would imply he or she would be kissing again. Well spotted Colin !!
