Colette, Pease Don’t!
[Intro] Hmm-ah… hmmm-ah… hmmm-ah… Ooh… aaaaah… na-na-na… la-la-la… [Verse 1] The veil was white, the flowers freshly bloomed I promised her a life of gold and grace But in the shadows of the dressing room She saw the truth written across my face A secret name I whispered in my sleep… [Pre-Chorus] She found the letters hidden in the cedar chest Now she’s the secret that will never rest… Ooh, it sounds like a wedding, soft and deep! A jealous vow she’s sworn to keep! Na-na-na… la-la-la… come on down! To the cold garden where the lilies grow Where she ended it all in the winter snow! Yeah-yeah-yeah, oh-oh-oh, hear the call! [Post-Chorus] Na-na-na, beware the bride! Na-na-na, nowhere to hide! Yeah-yeah-yeah, run for your life! Na-na-na… na-na-na… [Verse 2] Now every time I find a brand new hand to hold The air turns sharp, the room grows deathly cold She’s in the mirror, standing right behind her chair A silver flash, a scent of perfume in the air She whispers madness in my lover's sleeping ear Until the only exit is the one born of fear… [Bridge] She’s at the window, she’s beneath the floor A jilted spirit pacing at the door "If I can't have him, no one else will stay" She leads them to the edge and points the way… She’s waiting… [Chorus 2] Ooh, it sounds like a wedding, soft and sweet! But there’s a noose where our hearts should meet! Na-na-na… la-la-la… come on down! She binds the hopeful, the beautiful, the young With every bitter lie upon her tongue! Yeah-yeah-yeah, oh-oh-oh, hear the call! Na-na-na… la-la-la… beware it all! [Post-Chorus 2] Na-na-na, beware the bride! Na-na-na, nowhere to hide! Yeah-yeah-yeah, run for your life! Na-na-na… na-na-na… beware! I keep the lights on, I say a silent prayer But I can feel her fingers in my hair She’s watching every girl who walks through that door And she’s already waiting... On the bathroom floor. Beware the ring… Her love is a curse through the years… Ooh… aaaaah… mmmmm… hmmmmmm… Na-na-na…
