You Can'T Have Me

Release me then from strengthened grip Seducer you, oh devil’s child My will is strong, I shall not slip Though tempting, you do drive me wild I will never choose to take that route Though you try so hard to make me weak But, love is strong, no stronger, I tout It is in my heart, of which I speak So, devil run, pay heed, take flight You will not win me, here, this night My heart, it holds continued light My life is strengthened, by words, two My spouse, she offers future bright Empowered by the words, “I do” So, leave now demon, you shall not win I hold the key, I hold it strong I will not give in to your sin For I am where I do belong So, devil run, pay heed, take flight You will not win me, here, this night
