Lyrics

I will never forget the night the devil
Whispered in my ear
Words, slowly deliberate
So only I could hear

He said, “You, you are ssso beautiful
You dance rather well”
As I raised my glass in gratitude
He cast upon his spell

He said, “But she,”
As he gazed in her vicinity,
“She...
Is the epitome
Of ‘sexy’”

I pondered such audacity
While whiskey swirled my tongue
Striking curiosity
With haste, he slithered on

The night my faith was tried
His words, a sickening mantra
Repetitive as hell
I knew my lover knew her
But now, I wondered just how well

The next eve we met again
We held a warm embrace
But when Epitome arrived
You spun her around the whole damn place

And I heard:
“She...
Is the epitome of ‘sexy’”

It dawned on me my lover
Had a choice to make
For me, there was no other
My heart, the risk at stake

Days went past before I answered
Any of your calls
When at last we spoke
My heart was not prepared at all

Bluntly, I asked if you had
Something going on with her
You said you were disappointed
Nothing but a fondness could occur

And yet, I heard:
“She...
Is the epitome of sexy”

We tried to talk it out
But you didn’t have much fight
We tried skirting around it
Like a game, you took flight

Maybe you made your choice
Never to return
So the devil’s words forever echo
Whenever memories burn

“She...
Is the epitome of sexy
She...
Is the epitome”
