lyrics

High Blood and Long Evening Dresses

I don’t recall what your name is, my doll
Only the snow in the valley keeps falling
I don’t remember, but this is December
I don’t recall what your name is, darling

Chorus:
So why don’t you come like a thief on the doorstep
Carry me back to the quadrille in Knoxville
Oh, hey old Line Caller, a new silver dollar
I in my high blood and long evening dresses

Breathtaker, Devastator, Forsaker, Heartbreaker
I don’t know fear, and I don’t know pain
Oh, rider, whiter than snow on fire
I don’t remember the sound of the name
