[Intro: irish violin, penny whistle] [Pre-Chorus: female, ethereal, celtic] Purple roses scream out to me, why? Silent trees standing in hallowed sky. Your perfect air and your beautiful hair, Your cunning smile that says beware. (beware, beware, beware) [Chorus: female, ethereal, celtic] A long lost love that you give to me, Forever and ever like a mystery. Your love's a puzzle, a tale untold, In the garden of secrets, where hearts unfold. [Instrumental, build up tempo, irish violin, driving beat] [Verse 1: male, swedish death metal, chant, deep, growling, gritty, dark] The death of your kiss presses up to my lips, The forgetful bye in the ruby red sky. A swift quick touch to the quickening hips, Longing to live as a man that knows why (please tell me why) [Pre-chorus: female, ethereal, celtic] Purple roses scream out to me, why? Silent trees standing in hallowed sky. Your perfect air and your beautiful hair, Your cunning smile that says beware. (beware, beware, beware) [Chorus: female, ethereal, celtic] A long lost love that you give to me, Forever and ever like mystery. Your love's a puzzle, a tale untold, In the garden of secrets, where hearts unfold. [Verse 2: male, swedish death metal, chant, deep, growling, gritty, dark] The death of your kiss presses up to my lips, The forgetful bye in a ruby red sky. A swift quick touch to the quickening hips, Longing to live as a man that knows why (please tell me why) [Chorus: female, ethereal, celtic] A long lost love that you give to me, Forever and ever like mystery. Your love's a puzzle, a tale untold, In the garden of secrets, where hearts unfold. [Verse 3: male, swedish death metal, chant, deep, growling, gritty, dark] The unforgetful love of an only child, The soothing hand of a baby so mild. The sing-song approach to your innocent youth, The payment of sin from a kissing booth (please tell me why) [Bridge: male, melodic softer, sad] An awful young babe without any hope, Your beautiful skin like my neck in a rope. Tell me forever that your love will be true, Then kiss me so hard that my face will turn blue. (so blue) [Chorus: male and female duet] A long lost love that you give to me, Forever and ever like mystery. Your love's a puzzle, a tale untold, In the garden of secrets, where hearts unfold. [Outro - fading] Please kiss me. (please tell me why) [Lyrics by David Mitchell]
