Abby Hairston - Black Dress Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once I was young in New York City
The summer was hard but damn it was pretty
And I wore a black dress to make myself right
To cover the mess of myself
Oh, and I wore a black dress to make myself right
To cover the mess of myself

[Verse 2]
Baby, you should know pictures don’t do you justice
The look in your eye numbers you with the haunted
And I know you can’t stay
Something will come and take you away from me
And I know, know you can’t stay
Something will come and take you away

[Chorus]
And oh, now love
Could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
Now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?

[Verse 3]
And I’m here tonight to find me some saving
And you’re here tonight in your need for escaping
And I wore a black dress to make myself right
To cover the mess of myself
And I wore a black dress to make myself right
To cover the mess of myself
[Verse 4]
Prodigal sons playing tag by the bowery
And I’ll close my eyes and let you run by me
And I know you can’t stay
Something will come and take you away from me
And I know, know you can’t stay
Something will come and take you away

[Chorus]
And oh, now love
Could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
Now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?

[Bridge]
Don’t mind me now, if I slip on by you
I’m a little too mortal, for something divine
And if you’d like to know why
You sure know where to find me
At the back of the bar, with a cheap vodka lime

[Chorus]
And oh, now love
Could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
Now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
Now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
Now love, could you hold on to me just a little bit more?
[Outro]
Once I was young, New York City
The summer was hard but damn it was pretty
