Mally Smith - White Dress Lyrics

She wore a white dress only for an hour
She never left the store, she just stared into the mirror
She saw the other life that was only in her mind
It wasn't real, not real, she could feel
The tears, oh the tears as she fell

She walked along the road, dragging lace through the snow
Trading white for soaked sad tatters
Her seams ripped and edges began to fray
As she stumbled home through her daze
The tears oh the tears, they fell

And there were men to pass the time
And there were men to ease the mind
But the white dress, the white dress had lied
You can find her down in the reeds
With her whiskey, on bended knee
In a white dress that would not let her breathe

The tears, oh the tears they fell
