Lyrics
Deal with the Devil
©JILL EDNA MAE THOMAS
Verse 1
There are still 10 million things I want to say,
And all those stupid, stupid quarrels over nothing really much,
How they've become so forgettable, turned to ash and dust.
But I yearn to have those moments, Go back in time, exchange
Those stupid, stupid quarrels for a sweet, sweet embrace
Chorus
I'm lonely without you
Even in a crowded room,
Your clothes still hang in my wardrobe,
I smell the sweet perfume...
Of you,
Of you.
Verse 2
And your mother asked me gently,
To please, please change my answer phone,
Cos she said, the sound of your sweet,s weet voice smiling 'Hi there hello',
Is just too much for her to bare, she said it's been a year,
And she said, she can't move on, accept that you're not here.
Chorus
I'm lonely without you
Even in a crowded room,
Your clothes still hang in my wardrobe
I smell the sweet perfume...
Of you,
Of you.
Verse 3
I know how special and lucky we were, but,
It doesn't really help at all, my life is now so quiet and so very small
Without you...... without your beautiful mind and sweet, sweet lips,
Your kind and thoughtful way,
And I would have done a deal with the devil if it would have made you stay
Chorus
And I'm lonely without you
Even in a crowded room
Your clothes still hang in my wardrobe
I can smell the sweet perfume...
Of you, of you.
Outro
Of you
Of you
Of you
