Kiss of Death Lyrics

A brief encounter like wind through the trees
It came so suddenly
But then it was gone like it had never been
How could I have ever seen

A lost heart will take your soul
How could I have known
How could I have known

As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise as she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel with the Devil's charm
She promised paradise with the kiss of death

I tried to stop as she held out her hand
But the fire was burning inside
She knew what I wanted she gave it and more
But now I must pay the price

We were strangers passing in the night
How could I have known
How could I have known

As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise as she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel with the Devil's charm
She promised paradise with the kiss of death
The kiss of death

As she took me in her arms
I felt the devil's charm
Suddenly I see the final destiny
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise as she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel with the Devil's charm
She promised paradise with the kiss of death
Kiss me

With the kiss of death
With the kiss of death
With the kiss of death
With the kiss of death
With the kiss of death
(Kiss me)
With the kiss of death
