You Are My Sweetest Downfall
I Loved You First, I Loved You First
Beneath the sheets of paper lies our truth
I have to go I have to go
Your hair longer when we first meet

Stephen went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Told me things that have been said and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
The bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first , I loved you first
Beneath the stars came falling on our heads
But there just soft light, there just soft light
Your hair was longer when we first met

Stephen came to my bed
Told me that my hair was a copper red
He told me i was beautiful and came into my bed
Oh I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors and the yellow light
And he told me that I'd done alright
and kissed me till the morning light, the morning light
and he kissed me till the morning light

Stephen came back to bed
not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first
