15 Petals - 459742

[Chorus] 15 Petals One for every year I spent with you Jewels and precious metals will never do [Verse 1] 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 the please And all I am left with are these [Chorus] [Verse 2] 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 Joe Palms reached for alms as they throw [Chorus] 15 Petals One for every hour that we're apart Tears and useless battles I'll never start [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 15 Petals Scattered in the path where you will tread 15 Petals Of vivid red [Verse 4] One wine-bar vamp with the polythene face Ein Panzer Commander with no hair in place The crooked battalions drilled holes in the square
