She left a rose and am empty bottle of tequila on the table beside my bed
In lipstick cursive on the mirror in the bathroom she said, "Thanks again for the one-night-stand"
Her perfume stains the air with the scent of jasmine and the shame of a night that I'll never forget
Run for cover
She's lost her luster
It's hard to keep this halo straigh with the devil in my bed
Her poison kisses scribbled "treason" across my lips
Self-loathing heresy, I'm sleeping with the enemy
I left Cancun in dismay
And I never caught her name
Sangria kisses, satin sheets
She made her great escape
She didn't bruise her knees from praying
And her dark eyes, well, they lie
It's as if she crawled straight back to hell and right out of my life
Wander through my nightmares, torment my days
Maybe I'm superstitious, pray you my soul to take
