One night she met the Devil 
on a windy mountain road,
There was a single star 
trembling in a lavender sky,
And like two melancholy lovers 
they walked to where the streetlights end
And she held him in her arms 
and he started to cry,
He said: “You stole my heart, you just a mortal girl”.
She said: “Blind my husband's eyes and maybe I'll give 
you a whirl”
And she kissed his eyelids closed 
And wiped away his tearsÂ…Â….
They'd fly like owls at nightfall, over cities and 
hawthorn lanes,
He gave her a withered wreath for her birthday and a 
strapless dress,
And she knew how much he loved her, ‘cos he wrote it in 
the dust on a star
And he asked if she'd be his forever and she told him 
yes,
And in the back bedroom of a madman's house
He lit a fire in her that no god could douse
And he made snowflakes fall
One stifling summer night Â…Â….
Till one day there came a circus, they set up on the 
outskirts of town,
Her lover wooed a trapeze girl with magic and lies
That he'd whisper in her ear as tender as summer wind 
in grass
She had no choice but to do what she did and she 
watched her die,
Her lover's gone, he could be anywhere,
But there's a place he goes, and one day she'll meet 
him there.
She walks the mountain every night
Just to watch the twinkling lights Â…Â…..
