Lyrics
"the devil spoke well of you" (capo 2 out of G)
verse1:
love ran into a serpent
seems like a dream
but it seemed so real
just gonna tell you what i seen
dead in their tracks
waitin' for the other
to make a move
then the serpent said to the lover
chorus:
the devil spoke well of you
said you could break a heart, just like that
take the strongest man
make him cry, weak and sad
take away the magic
two hearts can share
and make eternity blue
yeah, the devil spoke well of you
verse 2:
the serpent just waited
but love didn't make a sound
then the serpent stepped forward
i can still hear hear him shout
chorus:
the devil spoke well of you
said you could break a heart, just like that
take the strongest man
make him cry, weak and sad
take away the magic
two hearts can share
and make eternity blue
yeah, the devil spoke well of you
(bridge)
then love started turnin'
into a bright and brighter light
till brights all that was left
words fading with that fire
chorus:
the devil spoke well of you
said you could break a heart, just like that
take the strongest man
make him cry, weak and sad
take away the magic
two hearts can share
and make eternity blue
yeah, the devil spoke well of you
