Regina Spektor - Samson

Lyrics to Samson by Regina Spektor

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 Ate a slice of wonder bread And went right back to bed And the 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 falling 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 till the morning light The morning light And kissed me till the morning light Samson went back to bed Not much hair left on his head Ate a slice of wonder bread And went right back to bed Oh we couldn't bring the columns down Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one And the history books forgot about us And the bible didn't mention us Not even once You are my sweetest downfall I loved you first
