Devil Song

Beth Orton

    Continues after the ad

    When the devil comes blowing through your door
    You'll know there's trouble
    And he's coming back for more
    You better keep what is precious
    Hidden under the floor
    Or you better treat it so good
    It will never want for more

    But looking back in retrospect
    Did you ever really get what you'd expect?
    Trying to rectify
    Got lost a little further
    Well, you've been trying to justify
    Find out how and from where it came

    Devil was your angel
    But it's not no more
    The devil was your angel
    When you weren't sure

    Continues after the ad

    Do I tempt trouble to break through all these doors
    Just to put a face to the voice which always haunts?
    To fight for what is precious, to know what's under the floor
    If I could treat it so good I swear I'd never want for more

    When I found my peace
    There were still mistakes
    However painfully your wearing every step I take
    Trying to rectify
    Got lost a little further
    Well, I've been trying to justify
    Find out how and from where it came

    The devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure
    To travel as my angel there's always my whore

    Gonna take it back down
    And I won't feel no shame
    Till my dreams are my own again
    Gonna take it right down
    And I'll take the blame
    Till my dreams are my own again
    Here I am again

    The devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure
    To travel as my angel there's always my whore
    (To trouble is my angel, there's always more)
    Maybe you're an angel
    Try to remember you're an angel
    Remember you're an angel
    If you're not sure
