Her lips pressed 'gainst my ear, she whispered
Have you seen the devil
And I know I am him, and she is
And tonight we'll live cause
Tomorrow we're dyin'
But good lord don't give in yet, we've got
Hours 'til day breaks the night where we hid
So I took her hand in mine
And we closed our eyes and jumped
Fell, or flew, depends on your perspective
I say, it's all the same if you can stick the landing
Hearts swelled, lungs bloomed
A rush of cool air to the flesh
And we were saved, or doomed
One last dance 'fore the moon
Laid her head on that sweet-shouldered horizon
Lazily drifted off to bed and
We kissed, swore we'd remember
To forget this by morning
Cause love must be a drinker
I've never known her to sleep without
A little regret on her lips.
