She only visits after midnight,
When the Whiskey hits me just right,
When her Eyes burn like the moonshine,
And her smile, it cools the skin
But I only see her dark side,
And she leaves before the sunrise
When we're Dancing in the street lights
and she Pulls me in again
They told me to resist it when she's calling in the distance, they know it makes no difference, they know I never listen, and then the blurry vision, and then my boots are slipping, I'm swept into her rhythm
Now I'm caught between her fingertips
like I'm just another one of her cigarettes
I lose the steps, but do the best I can
With her cherry lipstick playing tricks,
She's a hypnotist with swinging hips
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
No I don't stand a chance
The beast puts up a good fight
But the beauty holds the rope tight
I've still got some bark but no bite,
And I can't feel what hurts
I see my tail between my two feet
I see my ghost up in the roof beams
But her whisper cuts right through me
And I believe in every word
They told me to resist it when she's calling in the distance, they know it makes no difference, they know I never listen, and then the blurry vision, and then my boots are slipping, I'm swept into her rhythm
Now I'm caught between her fingertips
like I'm just another one of her cigarettes
I lose the steps, but do the best I can
With her cherry lipstick playing tricks,
She's a hypnotist with swinging hips
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
No I don't stand a chance
Now I'm caught between her fingertips
like I'm just another one of her cigarettes
I lose the steps, but do the best I can
With her cherry lipstick playing tricks,
She's a hypnotist with swinging hips
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
And now I'm lost inside her silhouette,
She knows how quickly I forget,
I'm feeling strong but I don't stand a chance
No I don't stand a chance
