Long Black Dress Written by: Randall B. Steffen She come to me one evening in a long black dress Was outta here by morning and I was all a mess I said life ain’t worth living if I can’t love the rest So I’ll take the week slow and give the world my best It took her to come back to me for me to find my soul Cause my spirit took flight with all the love I sold Once I loved a woman with all my soul She didn’t love me back. She just played the role One evening in a long black dress She come to me only to confess And she found me in a sudden state of vulnerability And she wound me in a tight spool And I could not please the woman in a long black dress She come in with a little more than less And I saw her leave with all the rest I said I ain’t worth having if I can’t give my best She’ll have to fill in the answers and I’ll grade her test It took her to come back to me to act a fool Feel like I’m standing on one leg on a stack of stools So I’ll follow the regulations and all the rules And I’ll join the lonely hearted on the ship of fools One evening in a long black dress She come to me only to confess And she found me in a sudden state of vulnerability And she wound me in a tight spool And I could not please the woman in a long black dress (repeat after solo) © 2010 Sleepy Dog Music Rndallbruce21@hotmail.com 859-802-0153
