The Black Dress Lyrics
I've never seen her before
Never been here before
Yet she seemed strangely familiarNever set foot in this bar
Nor do I recognize that car
But you caught my eyeIt looks like you've altered your skin
To fit over that tiny skeleton
Maybe you kidnapped some girlAdopted her posture and jaw line
And made them your own
Well, they aren't yours to ownAnd you know that good boy ain't me, yeah
People like us get poured into the daylight
Against the white sheets
Your black dress looks like an awful sin
Here we go again, here we go againYou're transparent
No proper introduction, just a sly smile
You've been throwing 'em back all nightYou're such a sloppy drunk
There goes another one on my shirt
You said you have my words
Written on your mirror in your bedroom at home
I'm flatter, I really amI can feel my cheeks flush
It always makes the girls
It always makes the girls blushAnd you know that good boy ain't me, yeah
People like us get poured into the daylight
Against the white sheets
Your black dress looks like an awful sin
Here we go againI can feel my cheeks flush
It always makes the girls blush
Here we go again, here we go again
