[Intro] [Chorus] 15 petals One for every year I spent with you Jewels and precious metals will never do       [Verse] I love you twisted And I  love you straight I’d write it down but I can’t concentrate Words won’t me obey they do as they please And all I am left with is these... [Chorus] 15 petals One for every year I spent with you Jewels and precious metals will never do       [Verse] The thorn is blunted And the perfume will fade I stand where sun is set I crave the shade Down in the tavern with Mary and Joe Palms reached for alms as they throw... [Chorus] 15 petals One for every hour that we’re apart Tears and useless battles I’ll never start     [Verse] Mussolini highway There’s a frankincense tree I picked some up there to carry with me You take me to places where I never go I love you more than you know [Chorus] 15 petals Scattered in the path where you will tread 15 petals of vivid red [Break]        Hey!    Hey!   Whoa-oh! Do-do-do [Outro] One wine-bar vamp with the polythene face Ein Panzer Kommander with no hair in place The crooked battallions drilled holes in the square Oh!
