 to my "Samson" hear this...

You are my sweetest downfall


I loved you first, I loved you first

Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth

I have to go, I have to go

Your hair was long when we first met



Samson went back to bed


Not much hair left on his head

He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed

And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us


And the bible didn't mention us, not even once



You are my sweetest downfall


I loved you first, I loved you first

Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads

But they're just old light, they're just old light

Your hair was long when we first met



Samson came to my bed


Told me that my hair was red


Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed

Oh I cut his hair myself one night


A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light


And he told me that I'd done alright

And kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light


And he kissed me 'til the mornin' light



Samson went back to bed


Not much hair left on his head


Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed

Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down


Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one


And history books forgot about us


And the bible didn't mention us, not even once



You are my sweetest downfall


I loved you first
