The Devil's Part

Oo-ooh ooh Oo-ooh ooh Oo-ooh ooh ooh... I'm sorry, darling But I will not let you win I have seen this before And I'm still recovering But I took his trembling hands I led them to my skin They twisted 'round my heart And let the dark right in So he came to me one night To tell me he is not alone He's carrying that girl Who had left him on his own She opened up his skin She lives inside his heart And he is scratching, begging For her to depart Oh, my darling You, you are not what I need I pray to mother My God, I'm down on my knees Please, my love Please my open heart Please take forgiveness, mother I played the devil's part So he shot his words like arrows But they hit me as would stone He led me out of town to tell me I would die alone 'Cause in my years of 25 I gave a fool my heart Please take forgiveness, mother I played the devil's part Oh, my darling You, you are not what I need I pray to mother My God, I'm down on my knees Please, my love Please my open heart Please take forgiveness, mother I played the devil's part The devil's part, ha! The devil's part, ha! The devil's part, ha! The devil's part The devil's part... I could say I learnt a lesson That I won't repeat again With every passing year I learned to bury sin But I'm older now, truth be told I've fallen right apart Now I spend the last days burning Paper through my heart Oh, my darling You, you are not what I need I pray to mother My God, I'm down on my knees Please, my love Please my open heart Please take forgiveness, mother I played the devil's part...
