Song information

Title: Devil song
Artist: Beth Orton
Album: Central Reservation

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.

Welll you've been trying to justify,

Find out how and where it came.



Devil was your angel, but it's not no more.

The devil was your angel, when you weren't sure.



Do I tempt trouble to break through all these doors,

Just to put a face to the voice which always ( )?

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 was 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 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 you back down

And I won't feel no shame

Till my dreams

Are my own again.

Gonna take yu right down, and I'll take the blame

Till my dreams are my own again.



Here I am again.



Devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure.

To travel as my angel there's always my whore (?)

Maybe you're an angel, tried to remember you're an angel.

Remember you're an angel, if you're not sure.
