Standing there by a broken tree
Her hands are all twisted, she's pointing at me
I was damned by the light, coming out of her eyes
She spoke with a voice that disrupted the sky
She said, "Walk on over here to the bitter shade.
I will wrap you in my arms and you'll know that you're saved."
Let me sign
Let me sign
I was out for a drink in a Soho bar
The air was smoked out liked a cheap cigar
She rose out of her seat like a painted ghost
She was the woman that I wanted the most
As she reached for my arm I gave her my hand
I said, "Lay me down easy let me understand."
Let me sign,
Let me sign,
Can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
As I walked through the door she was still in my head
As I entered the room she was laid there in bed
She reached out for me all twisted in black
I was on my way down, never coming back
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
