Your hair was long when we first met

you are my sweetest downfall
i loved you first, i loved you first
beneath the stars came falling 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 morning light, the morning light
And he kissed me til the morning light
