mercy bell - black dress lyrics
[verse 1]
once i was young in new york city
the summer was hard, d+mn it was pretty
and i wore a black dress to make myself right
to cover the mess of myself
oh, and i wore a black dress to make myself right
to cover the mess of myself
baby, you should know pictures don’t do you justice
the look in your eye numbers you with the haunted
and i know you can’t stay
something will come and take you away from me
and i know, know you can’t stay
something will come and take you away
[chorus]
and oh, now love
could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
[verse ]
and i’m here tonight to find me some saving
and you’re here tonight in your need for escaping
and i wore a black dress to make myself right
to cover the mess of myself
and i wore a black dress to make myself right
to cover the mess of myself
prodigal sons playing tag by the bowery
and i’ll close my eyes and let you run by me
and i know you can’t stay
something will come and take you away from me
and i know, know you can’t stay
something will come and take you away
[chorus]
and oh, now love
could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
[bridge]
don’t mind me now, if i slip on by you
i’m a little too mortal, for something divine
and if you’d like to know why
you sure know where to find me
at the back of the bar, with a cheap vodka lime
[chorus]
and oh, now love
could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
[outro]
once i was young, new york city
the summer was hard but d+mn it was pretty
