lyrics

This is a story of tenderness
where ones fortunes see the stars
the night will lead along with the disastrous drop
this is a story of tenderness

her red dress and her bewitching smile
filled the room with an alluring style
an august look and cancerous vapor
surround this infatuated beau
is this what beezlebub had pledged to happen?
she grips the room with an upheld mastery

This is a story of tenderness
where ones fortunes see the stars
the night will lead along with the disastrous drop
this is a story of tenderness

All the hounds and husky fiends
are all bursting with enthusiasm
and though it seems helpless
he can't help but marvel at the sight
and when his most darling lullaby takes his regard
the mistress in red, she comes and takes his hand
the count of four has them enslaved to the night again

it was the way she moved
the way she loved
hand in hand they're on the dance floor
and for a second
for a moment he shared
the security of all the stars above. x2

as the cancerous vapor ambush the two
the red begins to lose all luster
he reaches forward to only pass through
she withdraws into the night and into vamoose
beezlebub and his great yellow eyes are now king
he now has his soul and the lover of the red will remain in the
will remain in the dread night til blue

it was the way she moved
the way she loved
hand in hand they're on the dance floor
and for a second
for a moment he shared
the security of all the stars above. x2
