Lyrics

[00:06.55] You are my sweetest downfall
[00:14.22] I loved you first, I loved you first
[00:21.13] Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
[00:31.87] I have to go, I have to go
[00:38.65] Your hair was long when we first met
[00:50.24] Samson went back to bed
[00:53.60] Not much hair left on his head
[00:56.54] He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
[01:04.28] And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
[01:11.06] The bible didn't mention us, not even once
[01:23.28] You are my sweetest downfall
[01:32.04] I loved you first , I loved you first
[01:38.77] Beneath the stars came falling on our heads
[01:49.11] But there just soft light, there just soft light
[01:56.24] Your hair was long when we first met
[02:07.77] Samson came to my bed
[02:11.13] Told me that my hair was red
[02:14.28] He told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
[02:21.62] Oh I cut his hair myself one night
[02:25.01] A pair of dull scissors and the yellow light
[02:28.04] And he told me that I'd done alright
[02:30.71] and kissed me till the morning light, the morning light
[02:35.57] and he kissed me till the morning light
[02:57.80] Samson came back to bed
[03:01.18] not much hair left on his head
[03:04.16] Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
[03:11.64] Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
[03:14.76] Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
[03:17.95] And history books forgot about us
[03:21.23] And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
[03:34.17] You are my sweetest downfall
[03:42.68] I loved you first
