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
Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah
Watching you burn - ay-ah
Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah
Watching you burn - ay-ah
Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah
Watching you burn - ay-ah
Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ah
here's the lyrics straight from the hole website:
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
Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah Watching you burn - ay-ah Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah Watching you burn - ay-ah Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ay-ah Watching you burn - ay-ah Watching you burn (put on my best Sunday dress) - ah
Put on my best Sunday dress
