I saw you dancing in the back room, you went off like a smoking gun Right then and there I knew that I could never ever be the one So now I'm fading in the distance, riding a horse without a name They tell me you should keep your friends real close, but enemies untie the reins I can feel the thunder deep in your heart, maybe it's not safe here Light in your arms, your back deep down to your bones But it's better the devil you know Better the devil you know Better the devil you know Your back deep down to your bones But it's better the devil you know I hear you calling after midnight, our bodies tangled like the desert winds You think I'm blinded by your love but I see all the lies you're hiding in I can feel the thunder deep in your heart, maybe it's not safe here Light in your arms, your back deep down to your bones But it's better the devil you know Better the devil you know Better the devil you know Your back deep down to your bones But it's better the devil you know I ain't no angel, I've tasted sin Have been unfaithful and made my peace within For all the lovers that I hurt, I guess I get what I deserve Better the devil you know Better the devil you know Your back deep down to your bones But it's better the devil you know Better the devil you know
