Joseph & His Ghost

Lyrics

Those skies in your eyes
Cast only clouded lies
You come as no surprise
The devil in disguise

"I wouldn't be happy until I have seized the ripest apple on the tree"

Is it so? I will die or grow old?
Half of a soul and no hand to hold?

"Come, come close, my love
Give me your kind heart
I won't pay you mind
Just rip my body apart"

"If I were the devil, I would convince the young that marriage is old fashioned; that swinging is more fun; that what you see on TV is the way to be; and thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if were the devil I'd just keep right on doing what he's doing"

There is nothing you can give
That can make me feel like this
Do yourself a favor, forget I live
You will find another to kiss
