15 Petals

Elvis Costello

[Chorus]
15 petals
One for every year I spent with you
Jewels and precious metals will never do

[Verse 1]
I love you twisted and I love you straight
I'd write it down but I can't concentrate
Words don't obey me, 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 2]
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 never start

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
One wine-bar vamp with the polythene face
Ein Panzer Kommander with no hair in place
The crooked battalions drilled holes in the square
Whoa oh oh
