Lyrics Siouxsie and the Banshees

Siouxsie and the Banshees

The Sweetest Chill

Hearing you in my sleep

Feeling you your cadence seeps

Whispering in flashback the spectres of your memories

Fall in glistening showers such a tender descent

Intones this haunting lament

The sweetest chill

Fearing you but calling your name

Icy breath encases my skin

Fingers like a fountain of needles

Shiver along my spine

And rain down so divine

The sweetest chill

A drowning so sublime -- spins in a heavenly climb

Calling you tears thaw my sleep

Wanting you this hoary web is weaved

From this strange confusion

Grows a perverse communication

It enthralls me and coils me around

The sweetest chill

Enchantment ebbs and whirls the sweetest chill

Enchantment ebbs and whirls oh the thrill

The sweetest chill
