White Dress Lyrics - The Way It Was - Parachute Band

Verse1: 

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 shes looking for 

Oh but all she knows is a picture that keeps fading on 

But I can't let her go that's why I'm telling her 

Chorus: 

I wanna love you more 

Than all of the things you wanted 

Than all of the things you're not 

You want to have it all 

But you found it in the city 

But the city doesn't talk, oooh 

Verse 2: 

She wears a gold cross 

She sheds her skin but it never comes off 

She hears the angels out on the streets 

Tonight as she walks right by oh they sing so softly 

They sing "oohh whooah, oohh whooah, oohh whooah 

Loves right behind you oohh whooah" 

Chorus: 

I wanna love you more 

Than all of the things you wanted 

Than all of the things you're not 

You want to have it all 

But you found it in the city 

But the city doesn't talk 

Than all of the things you wanted 

Than all of the things you've got 

But you found it in the city 

But the city doesn't talk 

Bridge: 

Oohh whooah oohh whooah ohh whooah 

Oh she floats off through a crowded room 

She remembers the rows and rows of houses 

And the street lights going on 

That's why I'm telling her 

Chorus: 

I wanna love you more 

Than all of the things you wanted 

Than all of the things your not 

And you want to have it all 

But you found it in the city 

But the city doesn't talk 

I wanna love you more 

Than all of the things you wanted 

Than all of the things you've got 

And you want to have it all 

But you found it in the city 

But the city doesn't talk 

oohh whooah oohh whooah oohh whooah 

Loves right behind you
