One hell of a woman
Has often sat a'wondering
What wrong she is doing
To have again been forsaken
Well there's no amount of givin' of your kindness
Though a blessin' that can be another's deliverance
From the devils they deny
Oh, one hell of a woman
Is just as intimidating as she is intriguing
To a high and mighty man
Oh, does the depth she hold within
Assure an endless fall through heaven?
Or to him only threatening a crash and burn
She will wake your sleeping demons
Take 'em by the horns and waltzin' two, three
You'll have to face them
Oh, to keep her fallen angel
You'll lose one hell of a woman
Long's you dance half of a man
Long's you go on payin' no heed
To the ungodly within
Oh, one hell of a woman
Is next to the most discernin'
Force of the unfounding nature
That's transcendent, dark and blazin'
Will you shy from the reflection
Of your hidden in her eyes, son?
All you've not forgiven both in dealt
And what you've done
Oh, it's a lesson hard and learned
Your heart will not find salvation
And they have loved a woman
Even whilst you guard it
With your hurt and all
So many claim to seek heaven
Yet refuse the enlightenment
You can only know a woman true
As the truths you are believin'
She will wake your sleeping demons
Take 'em by the horns and waltzin' two, three
You'll have to face them
Oh, to keep her fallen angel
You'll lose one hell of a woman
Long's you dance half of a man
Long's you go on payin' no heed
To the ungodly within
Long's you go on payin' no heed
To the ungodly within
