God Needs The Devil Lyrics by Jonah Kagen

Black Dress

2024

[Verse 1]
Mm, mm, "Follow me"
Said a long black dress on Halloween
If this is all just make-believe
It might not be real, but it's real to me
Mm, mm, let her in
If you love her, son, it ain't no sin
Where she ends is where you begin
If you run, you'll run right back again
Mm
Ya
(Mm)
[Verse 2]
You can hide, but you can't stay gone
She'll find you, won't take her long
And she'll come on back with every dawn
And drag your ass where you belong
And you'll wake up all alone
On an old, beat down dirt country road
And you'll crawl back in fire and snow
'Cause there ain't no other place to go
Mm
[Chorus]
I need you like God needs the Devil, honey
Someday soon, this dust's gonna settle
Come real quick, and get inside my mind
'Cause, when I'm all fucked up, I don't feel no pain
Won't you run to me, run through my veins?
Baby, won't you come and get me high?
[Verse 3]
Mm, mm, I'm in love
In a nightmare, please don't wake me up
Got a bad case of making bad luck
It's who I am, not who I was
But that's life, boy, what can you do?
I need someone, and I need 'em soon
I called the doc and got new shoes
But all roads still lead back to you
[Chorus]
I need you like God needs the Devil, honey
Someday soon, this dust's gonna settle
Come real quick, and get inside my mind
'Cause, when I'm all fucked up, I don't feel no pain
Won't you run to me, run through my veins?
Baby, won't you come and get me high?
[Chorus]
I said I need you like God needs the Devil, honey
Someday soon, the dust's gonna settle
Come real quick, and get inside my mind
'Cause, when I'm all fucked up, I don't feel no pain
Won't you run to me, run through my veins?
Run to me, run through my veins?
Baby, won't you come and get me high?
Baby, won't you come and get me high?
