Azure Ray - The devil's feet lyrics

When I was a child a story was told

About the devil and a girl oh so bold

He offered her riches, a fortune of gold

And lovers abound

But she lifted her soul

She lifted her soul clean oh clean

And like the story was told

On a dark country road

The same man appeared to me

But I reached

I reached

Through the rain to the devil's feet

Now twenty years later to the place I return

Where I scorned the angels for a passion that burned

There set in the tree a knot twisted and turned

The face of a creature hell bound

So long ago could my mind have played jokes on me, oh please

As darkness sets in unavoidable sin

The truth I try not to believe

That I reached I reached

Through the rain to the devil's feet
