Better the Devil You Know (Intimate and Live) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go
'Cause it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Our love wasn't perfect, I know
I think, I know the score
You say you love me, oh, boy
I can't ask for more
I'll come if you should call
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go
'Cause it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Our love wasn't perfect, I know
I think, I know the score
You say you love me, oh, boy
I can't ask for more
I'll come if you should call
[Chorus]
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go
'Cause it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show
Yes, it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
