The Devil's Daughter

(Horn-Bernges, Carpemdale/Horn-Bernges, engl.: Mills)

Vers 1:

A naked shoulder
Black satin garter
A lack affected by a seam

Vers 2:

There on the corner
The devil's daughter
She stood, a multi coloured dream

Vers 3:

Her lips were parted
And then it started
That Smile of 'come and pay for love'

Vers 4:

And in the darkness
I was so helpless
I fell into her open arms
A victim of her wanting charme

Refrain:

Here I go now paying for love
Should have turned and changed directions
Here I go now praying for love
Knowing she can ease the tension
Here I go now playing for love
Gotta pay for love to set me free

Vers 5:

And then I saw her
The morning after
A little boy hung on her hand

Vers 6:

And though I bought her
The devil's daughter
I realized she wasn't bad
That long ago she loved a man

Refrain:

Here I go now paying for love
Memories so warm and tender
Here I go now praying for love
How I need the devil's daughter
There I go now playing for love
Will she turn around and come with me

Here I go now paying for love
I remember sweet surrender
Here I go now praying for love
How I need the devil's daughter
There I go now playing for love
Will she turn around and come with me
