Better the Devil You Know Lyrics by Steps

Platinum Collection

1999

Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know, oh...

Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know, oh...
Oh...

You say you won't leave me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses, no, no
'Cause I heard them all before
A hundred times or more... (woah...)

I'll forgive, and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah...)
'Cause it's true, what they say (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know)
Woah...

Our love wasn't perfect, I know
I think I know the score
If you say you love me, oh boy
I can't ask for more
I'll come if you should call... (woah)

I'll forgive, and forget
If you say you'll never go
'Cause it's true, what they say... (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know)
Woah...

I'll be here, every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah.)
Yes it's true, what they say... (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know)
Woah...
Woah...
Woah...
Woah...

Say you won't leave me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses (no, no)
'Cause I've heard them all before
A hundred times or more...

I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah...)
'Cause it's true what they say (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know) (woah...)

I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true what they say (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know) (woah...)

I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah...)
'Cause it's true what they say (better the devil you know)
It's better the devil you know (better the devil you know) (woah...)

I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true
