Lyrics
Black dress, you taunt me
Black dress, you tease me
I follow you... follow you blindly
You hide what I desire
You get in my way
Reveal your deep secret
And I'll let you stay
Your tempting image
The mirror reflects
My hands are no match for
The prize you protect
Black dress, you taunt me
Black dress, you tease me
I follow you... follow you blindly
I tug at you gently
With prowess and care
I try to get passed you
But I only stare
I stroke back the locks of
The hair that you wear
But none of my methods
Are aid to my dare
Black dress, you taunt me
Black dress, you tease me
I follow you... follow you blindly
Your spell has my begging
For merciful pleasure
Your arrogance snubs me
But you're not the treasure
I cry all night long
These thoughts I can't shake
Of your sheer innocence
One day I will take
Black dress, you taunt me
Black dress, you tease me
I follow you... follow you blindly
