It beckons so quietly, but I hear it clearly
You start walking towards me
Taking my breath and fearlessly setting me free
Oh, I feel it being drawn out
The blood flowing steadily into your mouth
This dark night, cruel and cold
You whisper softly, "Honey, you'll never grow old"
Looking back at the crowd
Back at the party
I step outside and disappear swiftly
Oh, I feel it being drawn out
The pain of life fading, going down south
Lost in the wake of my wedding
And caught here at these old crossroads
I can never leave
I think I've been fooled
Why am I not dressed in white?
With eyes full of glory and wine
I'll be your eternal bride
I'll be here forever
Here, on this night
Why am I not dressed in white?
I need you near me
I think I've been fooled
I need you near me
I think I've been fooled
You carry me over the crossroads
And I'm lost on this cold, dark night
Why am I not dressed in white?
I carry a mandrake in my bouquet
And I shiver when it screams
I carry a mandrake in my bouquet
And I shiver when it screams
The light in your eyes is still calling to me
Taking my whole world and setting it spinning
Knowing my weakness, the spark lies in the sand
Taking my hand, you lead me into the dance
Oh, I feel it being drawn out
My soul is rushing right into your mouth
How could you take me away from the party?
I think I've been fooled
How could you take me away from the party?
I think I've been fooled
I need you near me
I think I've been fooled
I carry a mandrake in my bouquet
And I shiver when it screams
I need you near me
I think I've been fooled
I carry a mandrake in my bouquet
And I shiver when it screams
With eyes full of lust and light
I'll be your eternal bride
I'll be here forever
Here, on this night
Oh, why am I not dressed in white?
Something is not right
Will the light spark?
The light in your eyes beckons to me It beckons so quietly, but I hear it clearly You start walking towards me Taking my breath and fearlessly setting me free Oh, I feel it being drawn out The blood flowing steadily into your mouth This dark night, cruel and cold You whisper softly, "Honey, you'll never grow old" Looking back at the crowd Back at the party I step outside and disappear swiftly Oh, I feel it being drawn out The pain of life fading, going down south Lost in the wake of my wedding And caught here at these old crossroads I can never leave I think I've been fooled Why am I not dressed in white? With eyes full of glory and wine I'll be your eternal bride I'll be here forever Here, on this night Why am I not dressed in white? I need you near me I think I've been fooled I need you near me I think I've been fooled You carry me over the crossroads And I'm lost on this cold, dark night Why am I not dressed in white?
