Samson by Regina Spektor
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I (1)________ 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 (2)____________ about us
And the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not (3)________ once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars (4)________ 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 (5)____________ me 'til the mornin' light
Samson (6)________ back to bed
Not much (7)________ left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went (8)__________ back to bed
(Oh), we couldn't bring the columns down
(Yeah) we couldn't (9)______________ a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
You are my (10)________________ downfall
I loved you first
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I (1)________ 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 (2)____________ about us
And the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not (3)________ once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars (4)________ 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 I was beautiful and came into my bed
(Oh) I cut his hair myself one night
