♪♫Face to Face Lyrics♫♪

Face to face -- my lovely foe Mouth to mouth -- raining heaven's blows

Hand on heart -- tic tac toe Under the stars -- naked as we flow

Cheek to cheek -- the bitter sweet Commit your crime in your deadly time It's too divine -- I want to bend I want this bliss, awww, but something says I must resist

Another life -- another time We're Siamese twins writhing intertwined Face to face -- no telling lies The masks they slide to reveal a new disguise You never can win -- it's the state I'm in This danger thrills and my conflict kills They say follow your heart -- follow it through But how can you -- when it's split in two?

And you'll never know You'll never know

One more kiss -- before we die Face to face -- and dream of flying Who are you? -- who am I? Wind in wings -- two angels falling To die like this -- with a last kiss It's falsehood's flame -- it's a crying shame Face to face -- the passions breathe I hate to stay...but then I hate to leave

And you'll never know No, you'll never know

No, no You'll never know You'll never know You'll never know You'll never know
