There’s a little devil and
a little angel in us all baby
But that’s not for us to know
To be human is to be
Both a sinner
And a saint.
But love?
You’re different.....
Let me explain.
See, I never knew
I liked yellow eyes
Until an angel fell in my demon lap
And you thought
‘Cause you had fallen
You were despicable
But darlin?
You didn’t fall
‘Cause you were bad
You floated down
For a purpose...
To save me
And suddenly life
was no longer loneliness
It was...heh... life was you.
You damn angel...
Life is narrow couches
And waking up in your arms now
It’s truck rides
And goofy smiles
And gentle pranks
It’s beautiful laughter
Singing off key in the car
Your hand in my hair
And I’m learning
Learning to trust again
Learning that not everyone just wants
.......
something from you
And you tell me
You’ve never been this open
And that you’d be lost without me
But sweetheart?
When you float back to heaven
And leave me here in the hell I’ve created?
I’m screwed honey
You’ve spoiled me......
I didn’t know someone could look at a devil
And see an angel instead
