El Diablo Songtext

von Duran Duran

Enter newborn players and gather
Weigh their innocence
Only the brightest shine
But not forever
Many lights die, many tears rain
When those tears run dry
On a mountain madness day

You were just in time
For a foolish deal for love I sold
I can't stand another howling day
Inside this empty skin

While the beacons burn I'll say
Await return from so far away

CHORUS
One life with the devil do I play
For so long el diablo is to blame

Oh el diablo, el diablo, won't you sell me back my soul?
Oh el diablo, el diablo, won't you sell me back my soul?

The wedding is on the wind, does she blow my way?
She can dance and she can sing
She will tear your heart away

While the promise burns I'll stay
And will you return from so far away?

CHORUS (x2)

One life but the devil is in my way...
