Samson by Regina Spektor

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I (1)__________ you first
Beneath the (2)____________ of (3)__________ lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we (4)__________ met
Samson went back to bed
Not much (5)________ left on his head
He ate a (6)__________ of wonder bread
And (7)________ right (8)________ to bed
And history books forgot about us
And the (9)__________ didn't (10)______________ us
And the bible didn't mention us, not (11)________ once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first

Samson came to my bed
Told me (14)________ my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and (15)________ into my bed
(Oh) I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of (16)________ scissors in the yellow light
And he (17)________ me that I'd done alright
And kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light
And he kissed me 'til the mornin' light

Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of (19)______________________ and (20)________ (21)__________ back to bed
(Oh), we couldn't bring the columns down

And history (23)__________ (24)____________ about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first
