The Dress

I saw the dress you wore that night In a resale window, stealing all the light Velvet, lace and secrets, betrayal trimmed in white I saw the dress you wore that night I saw the smile you tried to hide You were at the station waiting for your ride Friends I'd never seen laughing by your side I saw the smile you meant to hide I live the life you threw away Going through the motions, faking day by day Missing ever after, dreams in disarray I live the life you threw away I will walk down that street again I will follow you, watch you with your friends You will feel my shadow, behind you now and then I will walk down that street again I saw the dress you wore that night Hanging in a window, stealing all the light Velvet, lace and secrets, betrayal trimmed in white I saw the dress you wore that night
