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
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
