(Jeni Hankins & Billy Kemp)
Jeni Hankins & Billy Kemp/BMI
She came into his life like a devil
She came into his life like a dream
So sweet and toxic, thorn & petal
And she ruled his heart just like a queen
She offered up her body and her soul
She offered up her heart’s desire
So sweet and toxic, diamonds & coal
And she lit the match that set his world on fire
There was broken glass and broken hearts
and everything in between
And the trailer park incense
smelled of trash and gasoline
But it was nothing that her kiss could not redeem
She left one day just ‘cause she could
She left one day just like she blew in
So sweet and toxic, wine & blood
And he never saw the world the same again
There was broken glass and broken hearts
and everything in between
And the trailer park incense
smelled of trash and gasoline
But it was nothing that her kiss could not redeem
