Samson by Regina Spektor

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I (1)__________ you first
Beneath the sheets of (2)__________ lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was (3)________ when we (4)__________ met
Samson went back to bed
Not much (5)________ left on his head
He ate a (6)__________ of wonder bread
And went right (7)________ to bed
And history books forgot (8)__________ us
And the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
You are my sweetest downfall
I (9)__________ you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
But they're (10)________ old light, they're (11)________ old light
Your hair was (12)________ when we first met
Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and came (13)________ my bed
(Oh) I cut his hair (14)____________ one night
A pair of dull (15)________________ 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 (16)________ to bed
Not much (17)________ left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went (18)__________ (19)________ to bed
(Oh), we couldn't bring the columns down
(Yeah) we couldn't destroy a single one
And history (20)__________ (21)____________ about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not (22)________ once
You are my (23)________________ downfall
I loved you first
