Lyrics
Her look almost put me under.
Her touch almost took me down.
Her body was hot with hunger,
Hot with a fire that would have burned me down.
Why were all my senses stirring?
What spell disarranged my mind?
What sent my defenses swirling?
Wasn’t sure I could escape in time.
Other girls have tried to get my heart,
What she wanted was to get my soul.
When you’re dancing with a devil girl,
You can feel her trying to get control.
I ask where I’ve met this stranger?
And if we will meet again?
If I disregard the danger,
What in Hell is gonna happen then?
I felt as she swayed against me,
A fate I could not deny,
My thoughts were arrayed against me,
Telling me it would be paradise.
Her words I can still remember.
She said as I left the floor,
“It will be a sweet surrender”,
because I know you will come back for more.
Other girls have tried to get my heart,
What she wanted was to get my soul.
When you’re dancing with a devil girl,
You know what happens if she gets control.
Other girls have tried to get my heart,
What she wanted was to get my soul.
When you’re dancing with a devil girl,
You know what happens if she gets control.
