Lyrics for The Devil's Plaything

And he came to me on a northern wind And he flooded my mind in a river of light And he wrapped my body in a breath of fire Then he hid my soul in a cloak of night Like a devil's plaything And he spoke to me in a language lost And he turned my head with sweet seduction And he filled my body with flames of ice Then he touched my soul and then he gave it back Like a devil's plaything As in a ruin where violets grow In moss covered fields On cold marble stone Love sometimes steals into a heart And he came to me on a northern wind And he flooded my mind in a river of light And he wrapped my body in a breath of fire Then he hid my soul in a cloak of night And he spoke to me in a language lost And he turned my head with sweet seduction And he filled my body with flames of ice Then he touched my soul and then he gave it back Like the devil's plaything As in a ruin where violets grow In moss covered fields On cold marble stone Love sometimes steals into a heart Love sometimes steals into a heart Love sometimes steals into a heart Love sometimes steals into a heart Love sometimes steals into a heart
