The Black Dress Lyrics

The Black Dress lyrics

I've never seen her before

Never been here before

Yet she seemed strangely familiar



Never set foot in this bar

Nor do I recognize that car

But you caught my eye



It looks like you've altered your skin

To fit over that tiny skeleton

Maybe you kidnapped some girl



Adopted her posture and jaw line

And made them your own

Well, they aren't yours to own



And 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 again



You're transparent

No proper introduction, just a sly smile

You've been throwing 'em back all night



You'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 am



I can feel my cheeks flush

It always makes the girls

It always makes the girls blush



And 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



I can feel my cheeks flush

It always makes the girls blush

Here we go again, here we go again
