Jolie Holland - The Devil's Sake lyrics

I got drunk on an old photograph of you That I'd taken in my mind Only an angel sent from up above Can tell me if you're the devil or the one I should love Where is that angel? I'm praying with all of my might Oh, take me into your heart again With kisses sweeter than lies Don't tell me the truth I can already hear it in the way you howl in the night Only your bones can tell my hands that you're right I'm trying to be innocent as a dove But I'm smarter than a nest full of snakes Oh, heaven help me if only for the devil's sake I got drunk on an old photograph of you That I'd taken in my mind Only an angel sent from up above Can tell me if you're the devil or the one I should love
