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 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 With the kiss of death
