The first time I laid eyes on you
The first time I laid eyes on you
You wore black silver stockings
with a seam down the back
Your dress was split to your thighs
And your hair was a place
After it smothered your side
And you dealt in the card games
Haunted you saw the sun rise
But as soon as I'd leave you I looked
Teardrops would swell in your eyes
There were three tiny daughters
that lived with your mother
You only wanted their best
But you could not give them the
things that you wanted to
You only wanted their best
The first time I laid eyes on you
The first time I laid eyes on you
