White Dress Lyrics

She wears a white dress
She sees the light and it's saying come back
She's out the door but she hasn't left yet
And I start believing her when she says that
The city's gonna save her

Love don't leave her
I know just what she's looking for
Oh but all she knows is
A picture that keeps fading more
But I can't let it go
That's why I'm telling her

I want to love you more
Than all of the things you wanted
Than all of the things you're not
You want to have it all
She found it in the city
But the city doesn't talk

She wears a gold cross
She sheds her skin but it never comes off
She hears the angels out on the streets at night
As she walks right by
Oh they sing so softly they sing
Oh, love's right behind you, oh

I want to love you more
Than all of the things you wanted
Than all of the things you're not
You want to have it all
She found it in the city
But they city doesn't talk

Than all of the things you wanted
Than all of the things you've got
She found it in the city
But the city doesn't talk, oh

Oh she floats off
Through a crowded room
She remember the rows and rows of houses
And the streetlights going home
That's why I'm telling her

I want to love you more
Than all of the things you wanted
Than all of the things you're not
You want to have it all
She found it in the city
But the city doesn't talk

I want to love you more
Than all of the things you wanted
Than all of the things you're not
You want to have it all
She found it in the city
But the city doesn't talk

Oh, love's right behind you
