Lyrics:

(lynch, dokken, pilson)



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
