If Love Is A Red Dress (Hang Me In Rags)

If Love Is a Red Dress - Maria Mckee

My heart is empty

Your eyes are dark

Once we were hungry

Now we are full

These chains that bind us

Can't beat these chains

If love is shelter

I'm gonna walk in the rain

You were my angel

Now you are real

So like a stranger

Colder than steel

The morning after

You know what you bring

If love is a red dress

Well hang me in rags

Away

There goes the fairy tale

Lord ain't it a shame

In all this comfort

I can't take the strain

If we played even

I'd be your queen

But someone was cheatin'

And it wasn't me

I've laid it on the table

You had something back

If love is Aces

Give me the Jack
