Best Sunday Dress

Put on my best Sunday dress

And walked straight into this mess of mine

And I put on my best Sunday dress

And I walked straight into this mess



And watching you burn - ai-ay

Watching you burn - ai-ay

Watching you burn- ai-ay

Watching you burn - ah

Pale blue eyes so young

Pale blue eyes so far away

Watch me with his sorrow

Forgive me all his pain..



And I've come here to confess

To the wind and the rain and the glorious fame

And I've come here all undressed

For the numb and the dumb both say

The name that you burn - ai-ay



Watching you burn - ai-ay

Watching you burn - ai-ay

Watching you burn - ah

Pale blue eyes so dumb

Pale blue eyes so far away

Take him to the river

Forgive us all his pain



Oooh, I'm coming undone

He comes from the coal mine

I see you shine like a diamond

And curse us all goodnight



And I put on my best Sunday dress

And I walked straight into this mess of mine

And I've come here all undressed

With the poison and pain to take With mine

that you burn - ay-ah That you burn - ah



Pale blue eyes so young

Pale blue eyes so far away

Take me to his sorrow

Forgive us all his pain
