She hands me the red dress With yellow flowers She never knew what I'd do Within the hour I remember you looking in On all us girls Your black suit in place White collar as a pearl The harp plays on and on Amidst the chatter My eye catches the dress, It doesn't matter The woman that I sent to it Has re-gifted the dress Now someone else wears it Not four tables hence Your eye catches mine but You retreat when I turn round We say so many things And yet without a sound I often wonder of that day If you'd come around If only had worn the dress, Red with yellow flowers down
