Lyrics
Uncanny woman
Refers to a mysterious or eerie woman
You weaved your spell on me
She enchanted or captivated the speaker
I was taken by the look in your eyes
The speaker was attracted by the expression in her eyes
For all the wrong reasons
For reasons that were not appropriate or good
You must have been a spiteful child
Suggests the woman had a spiteful nature during childhood
Full of anger
Full of anger and resentment
Raised by the hand of a duchess, a mother and a heathen
Implies she was raised by different types of authority figures, possibly with conflicting values or influences
You laid your tender trap of crystals and wine
She set an enticing trap using luxurious items
Your neck was sweetly laced with a scent I did not mind
Her neck carried a pleasant scent that attracted the speaker
I can't lie
Repeated emphasis on the inability to deceive or lie
I can't lie
-I can't lie
-Angel don't cry
Repetition urging the angelic figure not to cry
Angel don't cry
-Queen of darkness
Describes the woman as someone with authority and influence
You got your way with me
She had control or power over the speaker
You caressed ev'ry part of me soul
She intimately connected with the speaker's soul
You got what you were after
She achieved her objective or desire
A savage and an angel
Characterizes her as both ferocious and celestial
You innocently hunger for love
Despite her nature, she yearned for love innocently
Still shivering from the coldness of you laughter
Still affected by the chilling impact of her laughter
You laid your tender trap of crystals and wine
Repetition of the trap she set, indicating repetition of her methods
Your neck was sweetly laced with a scent I did not mind
Reiteration of the attractive scent about her
I can't lie
Repeated emphasis on the inability to deceive or lie
I can't lie
-I can't lie
-Angel don't cry
Continued urging for the angelic figure not to cry
Angel don't cry
-No, angel don't cry
-Angel don't cry
-No, no, no
Final plea for the angel not to cry
