Lyrics
White Dress
VERSE
For so many days, it was just me alone
No one to listen to, no one rang my phone
So I went for a walk, as I passed by this girl
To my surprise, she waved me to her world
On the beach sand, we sat the whole day there
Talking Thoreau, Oprah and Voltaire
Her thoughts were eclectic, Springsteen to Monet
Country as Nashville, city as L.A.
CHORUS
She wore a white dress on the day we met
We kicked off our shoes, it was summertime
Nothing much to do, lots of things to say
Her white dress put a smile on my day
VERSE
She had squirt guns and we got a little wet
Her skin glistened, turning a bit red
I reached for the sunscreen, she said "do my back"
"And don't be bashful, get underneath my straps"
As the sun set, I said "I like your dress"
She said "Me, too. Wanna see the rest?"
Adventure in her eyes and boldness on her face
She tore it off and to the water she raced
CHORUS
She wore a white dress on the day we met
We kicked off our shoes, it was summertime
Nothing much to do, lots of time to play
Her white dress put a smile on my day
BRIDGE
It's been years now, but oh, that skinny dip
I can still taste the salt from her lips
OUTRO
She wore a white dress (x3)
