One Night with the Devil

One night with the devil
One night divine

Rumors rolled through Sunday pews
Hymns in my throat, but the whispers grew
Said the preacher's wife done lost her grace
Got the devil smilin' in her face
You weren't my plan, hell, you weren't my type
But small-town gossip can light a wildfire right
They called me holy, said you were sin's design
Guess that's how heaven met the borderline

One night with the devil, one night divine
They called it sin — but baby, it was mine
One night with the devil, one night divine
One night, one night, divine

World came crashin', hearts got bruised
Faith got twisted, and truth got used
In the rubble we stood, smoke in our eyes
Said, "Hell, if they'll damn us — let's give it a try"
You struck a match, said, "Baby, don't forget,
Love's a fire — light me up, smoke me like a cigarette"
One night of sin, but the sparks still glow
And every rumor just made it grow

One night with the devil, one night divine
They called it sin — but baby, it was mine
One night with the devil, one night divine
One night, one night, divine
One night with the devil — they said we'd fall
But that red-lace fire still burns through it all
Devil in your eyes, devil in your kiss
They called it sin — we called it bliss
Light me up, baby, smoke me slow
We gave 'em somethin' to talk about long ago
One night with the devil, one night divine

I wasn't your savior, I wasn't your plan
Just a blamed-up sinner with a steady hand
They called me the reason your halo slipped
But I caught your tears before they hit your lips
They cast their stones, we took the blame
Now they still whisper when they say our names
If lovin' you's hell, then baby, I'll burn
One night with the devil, one night divine

One night with the devil, one night divine
They called it sin — but baby, it was mine
One night with the devil, one night divine
One night, one night, divine

They said we'd fade, they said we'd burn
But baby, look how the tables turned
That devil turned saint when he married that queen
Now heaven's jealous of the fire we've seen

One night with the devil, one night divine
They called it sin — but baby, it was mine
One night with the devil, one night divine
One night, one night, divine
One night with the devil — they said we'd fall
But that red-lace sin still outshines it all
Devil in your touch, devil in your smile
Light me up, baby, smoke me slow
They said we'd burn — we made love grow
One night with the devil, one night divine
