REGINA SPEKTOR lyrics : "Samson Piano Cover"

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
