Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Mystery of the sages come into the realms of my imagination
Let me digest you
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Shall we make love, feel the waves of the ocean
Come to rest in the eye of the storm?
[Verse 2]
I cried myself to sleep over you
You come and then you go
The more I fall, the more you let go
The sweet taste of you stains my lips
Even through the pain, it's only you that I miss
[Verse 3]
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Mystery of the sages come into the realms of my imagination
Let me digest you
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Shall we make love, feel the waves of the ocean
Come to rest in the eye of the storm?
[Verse 4]
Unlike those before, I wanna free you
Let the sweetness of your kiss rush over me
(Rush over me)
I've search so many lifetimes
I let my soul rest in your arms and I'll let you inside
[Verse 5]
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Mystery of the sages come into the realms of my imagination
Let me digest you
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower
Shall we make love, feel the waves of the ocean
Come to rest in the eye of the storm?
[Verse 6]
The more I fall, you let go
Feel my love falling deeper (Falling)
I can't get over you
The more I fall, you let go
Take my hand, I am falling deeper (Falling)
[Verse 7]
You enchant me so (Enchant me so) my bittersweet flower
Mystery of the sages come into the realms of my imagination
(Let me) Let me digest you (Let me)
You enchant me so, my bittersweet flower (Let's make love)
Shall we make love, feel the waves of the ocean
Come to rest in the eye of the storm?
(Can we make love? Can we make love?)
[Verse 8]
The more I fall, you let go
(My bittersweet flower)
The more I fall, you let go (I cry, I cry myself to sleep over you)
(I can't get over you)
The more I fall, you let go
(Take my hand, feel myself falling deeper)
The more I fall, you let go
(My bittersweet flower)
[Verse 9]
Touch your body
Hear me call your name
Let me touch your body
Hear me call your name
[Verse 10]
Some kind of fool am I
To fall so in love with someone like you
Such a bittersweet flower
My bittersweet flower
The more I fall, you let go
The more I fall, you let go
The more I fall, you let go
Babe, the more I fall, you let go
The more I fall, you let go
My bittersweet flower
The more I fall, you let go
