Lyrics

The White Dress © Earl.C.Webb

Oh dear, come over here
I want to talk to you
The words come out so easily
Because I love you true

Look at you in your white dress
Those ribbons in your hair
Look at me I'm a right mess
Can't stop shaking I'm so scared

A hundred million photographs
To digitize the day
But who needs those snapshots
To remember you this way

Look at you in that white dress
So beautiful and fair
Look at me I'm a right old mess
How can I compare, to one so beautiful?

They say that white stands for innocence
Beneath your veil of lace
As pure as all the untouched snow
You hide your lovely face

Just look at you in that white dress
So beautiful and fair
Look at me I'm a right old mess
How can I compare, to one so beautiful

Short, but sweet and very enjoyable and pleasing to the ears. The song has a personal flavor to it. Like the singer is singing to someone he knows. Very nice! There is also a Van Morrison quality to the lyrics and vocal approach that I really enjoyed as well.
Well done!!!

Really nice piece chock full of soul. Everything going on in the background is superb, and piano adds a very nice touch. Vocals sound like a combination of Randy Newman and Joe Cocker.

Reminded me of Richie Havens, nice. Would be a great short song for a movie or TV show or documentary. Loved the style and the voice. Nice simple guitar work with a sweet melody.

the vocal is great very interesting voice, nice tone and timbre. the guitars are nicely played and lyrics are interesting. the theme of the song with the white dress and being a right mess works very well the juxtaposition is good.

very nice little songs with great lyrics vocal style and music
sweet song

Sets a lovely tone and leaves me hungry for the chorus!!!
