I DO NOT OWN THIS MUSIC.

The most famous Dokken album, Back for the Attack is a masterpiece. With an opener like "Kiss of Death" you know your in for a great record. Back for the Attack was released in 1987. Fun fact, it was recorded at One on One studios, the same studio that Thrash legends Metallica recorded THEIR most famous album, "Metallica" also known as the Black Album. Pretty funny right? Anyway "Kiss of Death" dictates what Dokken are really made of. They may be under the Glam Metal label, but Dokken can still kick loads of ass. This song has the balls to prove it.

Lyrics:
A brief encounter
Like wind through the trees
It came so suddenly
But then it was gone
Like it had never been
How could I have ever seen
A lost heart
Will take your soul

How could I have known
How could I have known
As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

I tried to stop
As she held out her hand
But the fire was burning inside
She knew what i wanted
She gave it and more
But now I must pay the price
We were strangers
Passing in the night

How could I have known
How could I have known
As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

As she took me in her arms
I felt the devil's charm
Suddenly I see
The final destiny
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

With the kiss of death
