15 Petals Lyrics

15 Petals lyrics

15 Petals
One for every year I spent with you
Jewels and precious metals will never do

I love you twisted
And I love you straight
I`d write it down but I can`t concentrate
Words won`t obey they do as they please
And all I am left with are these...

15 Petals
One for every year I spent with you
Jewels and precious metals will never do

The thorn is blunted
The perfume will fade
I stand where sun is set
I crave the shade
Down in the tavern with Mary and Jane
Palms reached for alms as they throw

15 Petals...
One for every hour that we`re apart
Tears and useless battles
I`ll never start

Mussolini highway
There`s a frankincense tree
I picked some up there to carry with me
You take me to places where I`d never go
I love you more than you know

15 Petals
Scattered in the path where you will tread
15 Petals 
Of vivid red

One wine-bar vamp with the polythene face
Ein Panzer Kommander with no hair in place
The crowded battallions drilled holes in the square
