You Were The Devil
Nicole Atkins

Lay down your love, he commanded
And with those words I sealed the fate that was mine

Dark magic in your eyes
In dangerous ways you came and swayed a change in me

I gave my breath so I could suffocate your fire
Still it’s the hate in your words I came to admire

Love waves goodbye empty handed
You were the devil, now I’m turning into you

All through these years I have waited
For your nocturnal tongue to tell me I am found
And with a coolness I’m jaded
Fall to your knees and dig my heart up from the ground

Love waves goodbye empty handed
You were the devil, now I’m turning into you
