Lyrics
Silk Thread
Without a sound, she spins round her lover
Her piercing eyes darkly shine nothing moves her
From her prey, her devotion
Seals his fate in slow motion
He?s waited to late, he can?t be saved
Chorus:
How she dances, seductively romances
You can tell he?s entranced, he had no chance
Sweet words are expressed, in wild colors she is dressed
He?s caught now, surprised, and a little distressed
This dance returns no lover, it?s out now she?s blown her cover
When it?s over, it?s really, finally over
Her body sways as the guitar plays softer
Her laughter?s light and you think you might just love her..
For the night, you get the notion
She wraps her love tight in slow motion
Then you feel her love bite and you could die
Chorus:
How she dances, seductively romances
You can tell he?s entranced, he had no chance
As she kisses him, she will not falter
A piece of silk thread falls on the water
He says Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy
