Like a killer at large

You strolled down Bourbon Street

Lookin' for an easy mark

With every man you meet

And I never saw the devil

Behind your rain blue eyes

Spellbound by your long legs and your little white lies



Oh, heaven help the heart that falls head over heels

Cause you'll tear it all apart just to see how it feels

How can you be so hot and so cold-blooded too

Oh, heaven help the heart that falls in love with you



You're no Adalida, no pretty Cajun queen

Just a bad girl from Biloxi, more addicting than morphine

And when your love wears off

There's nothin' left but pain

And enough teardrops fall to flood Lake Ponchatrain



Oh, heaven help the heart that falls head over heels

Cause you'll tear it all apart just to see how it feels

How can you be so hot and so cold-blooded too

Oh, heaven help the heart that falls in love with you



I can see you smilin' in some Creole cafe

Slippin' your love potion in someone's ettouffe



Oh, heaven help the heart that falls head over heels

Cause you'll tear it all apart just to see how it feels

How can you be so hot and so cold-blooded too

Oh, heaven help the heart that falls in love with you



Oh, heaven help the heart that falls head over heels

Cause you'll tear it all apart just to see how it feels

How can you be so hot and so cold-blooded too

Oh, heaven help the heart that falls in love with you

Oh, heaven help the heart that falls in love with you
