on a hot summer wind that the night had blown in 
a vision a siren in black, 
with green velvet eyes and a porcelain smile 
the fireflies danced in her hair 

she said “Please can you help me, 
i’m lost and i’ve nowhere to go,
please can you be the kindest soul?”

well i couldn’t resist her undauntable charm 
as she [bad word] passed me through the door, 
there was something inside burned i just couldn’t hide, 
i’d never seen beauty before 

“Please can i stay, 
for my body is weak to the bone, 
and can you tell me are we alone?”

Heaven is only 
one kiss away 
and i can take you as long 
as we stay

well, the first lie i told was my wife had been gone 
one year ago to this day 
and i still hear her cries in the trembling night 
and the nightmares just won’t go away 
 [bad word] close 
and look deep in my eyes” 
and i watched them turn 
black as night

Heaven is only one kiss away, 
and i can take take you as long as we stay. 
Heaven is only one kiss away,  [bad word] s here on Earth, boy, so drink for today.

well i watched her lay sprawling, beckoning and calling, 
burning holes right through the floor 
and the wind started howling 
and my hands started shaking 
and the smell of death rose through the air 

“This is the last thing 
that i’ll ask of you, 
embrace me tonight and let us take flight” 

her siren song seeped slowly into my head as i drew her close to my lips 
and as they gently touched i felt a [bad word] 
as the life was [bad word] right from my heart 
with my last breath i watched the black angel of death spread her wings in bliss 
for she had stolen my soul through a kiss 

Heaven is only one kiss away, 
and i can take take you as long as we stay. 
Heaven is only one kiss away,  [bad word] s here on Earth, boy, so drink for today.
