Love Song for a Vampire Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come into these arms again
And lay your body down
The rhythm of this trembling heart
Is beating like a drum

[Chorus 1]
It beats for you, it bleeds for you
It knows not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs…

[Verse 2]
Once I had the rarest rose
That ever deigned to bloom
Cruel winter chilled the bud
And stole my flower too soon

[Chorus 2]
Oh, loneliness, oh, hopelessness
To search the ends of time

For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine


[Bridge]
Love, oh love, oh love…
Still falls the rain… (still falls the rain)
Love, oh love, oh, love…
Still falls the night…
Love, oh love, oh love…
Be mine forever… (be mine forever)
Love, oh love, oh love…
[Verse 3]
Let me be the only one
To keep you from the cold
Now the floor of heaven's lain
With stars of brightest gold


[Chorus 3]
They shine for you, they shine for you
They burn for all to see
Come into these arms again
And set this spirit free

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
