A Devil Lay Here - Zomby

I remember I was singing about September When you walked across the boardwalk to that smoky bar And I'd been singing for the last six nights And I could barely talk to tell you just how pretty you were But you were as pretty as a preachers wife on Sunday I was useless like a church bell on a Friday night And I felt like a tragedy all dressed in dirty clothes When you walked out before I could say How when you stepped in And the world stopped spinning I gotta let you know Just how I've become an artist And how things fall apart It's the only thing I know Won't you just stay here We can just stay here We can just stay here Won't you just stay here Spent the whole next night on the telephone We were both alone just waiting on a change And I remember I felt as suave as a prom date 15 minutes late in a rented suit and his mothers car The next night was a Monday and you came over to my house We hardly talked about anything, but it never got quiet until we Kissed our first of many and the clock hands took reprieve From the round the clock labor of their day to day 'Cause when you steped in And the world stopped spinning I've gotta let you know That I know it will I don't know when that time will matter again But I don't want to let you go Won't you just stay here Won't you just stay here We can just lay here We can just lay here I was thinking I'd swing by sometime around midnight Turn my headlights off when I get near And let's say you and me, we get the hell out of this town 'Cause we're the only thing that ever happened here I've got 50 dollars and if we ride with the windows down And I screen my smokes I think we'll make it into Georgia And improvise from there And everybody knows from here That you can't go to hell without passing through Atlanta first I'll find a dead end job and I'll try to write a dead end song Just thoughtless enough to make the radio And we'll drink wine like water As if we had a sorrow to drown If that don't work it's alright, baby We can just stay here We can just stay here 'Cause when you stepped in And the world stopped spinning I gotta let you know Just how I've become an artist At how things fall apart It's the only thing I know Won't you just stay here We can just stay here We can just lay here We can just lay here We can just stay here (Stay here) We can just stay here oh (Stay here) We can get away dear oh (Away dear) We can just lay here I remember I was singing about September When you walked across the boardwalk to that smoky bar

In the end, you're just a friend, we'll take it day by day No secret wink, no just one drink, it's coffee all the way If a restaurant is what you want, only then I'll play along Let's do this dance, you've got one chance, I'm a sucker for a song A pretty dress, a leopard vest, if you ask me too I'll put them on, I'll play along, pretend it's all for you But one wrong move if I disapprove, you know you're going to pay That's just a fact, it's not an act, I've always been this way That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart (I can sing you tender songs of love) (I can give you merry tales, enjoy your laughter) (I can transport you to the realms of music) (I'm just going off with another man) If 2 by 2 is what you do, then climb up on this ark The animals are seeking thrills in an amusement park We'll stow away and watch them play until the sun begins To set the scene, you're in a dream surrounded by the fins The men in grey will have their way as they are closing in Can't figure out how to get out or how I sucked you in You rolled the dice, my heart is ice, there's nothing I can say That's just a fact, it's not an act, I've always been this way That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart (I can sing you tender songs of love) (I can give you merry tales, enjoy your laughter) (I can transport you to the realms of music) (I can cause you to join in the rhythmic dance, dance, dance, ...) (Whoa) That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart That women was a devil That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart That women was a devil (in the end, you're just a friend) That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart That women was a devil (in the end, you're just a friend) That devil stole my heart And now she's gone forever We'll always be apart (That's just a fact, it's not an act, I've always been this way) (Always been this way) (In the end, you're just a friend, we'll take it day by day) (Always been this way) (That's just a fact, it's not an act, I've always been this way)

If you leave me God rest my soul If you stay here I'm no better off Bury me six feet down below And I'll be smiling, when I go Damned if I do Damned if I don't (damned if I don't, damned if I don't) She looked at me Then I sold my soul She's the devil She's the devil in a dress I'm in peril She ripped my heart right out my chest I would give my life for one more kiss, from the devil 'Cause she's the devil in a dress And I love it, love it, love it Oh, I love it, love it, love it And I love it, love it, love it She's the devil in a dress Them pearly gates and streets of gold I won't make it, I'm out of control I wear your love like a blindfold And truth be told I sold my soul To the devil She's the devil in a dress I'm in peril She ripped my heart right out my chest I would give my life for one more kiss, from the devil She's the devil in a dress And I love it, love it, love it Oh, I love it, love it, love it And I love it, love it, love it She's the devil in a dress I would give my life for one more kiss I'm a man in pain, I'm a masochist She's the devil She's the devil in a dress I'm in peril She ripped my heart right out my chest And I would give my life for one more kiss, from the devil She's the devil in a dress And I love it, love it, love it Oh, I love it, love it, love it She's the devil She's a devil in a dress And I love it, love it, love it Oh, love it, love it, love it She's the devil She's the devil in a dress And I love it
