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
