Shellee Coley - Cotton Dress Songtexte

Face is pressed into the carpet
Spin the record then restart it
Needle pressed into the vinyl
And music came to life

For a little girl in a cotton dress
That spins the room with hair a mess
Waiting for their wild applause
To make her feel alive

On the weeknights mamma sang
"you are my sunshine" before we prayed
And i'd try not to fall asleep
So she would just keep singing

But on the weekends daddy played it
On the guitar was my favorite
Music was the way he prayed
And it made me feel alive

And now i sing "you are my sunshine"
For the ones who are my sunshine
And pray that they won't fall asleep
So i can just keep singing

To a little girl in a cotton dress
A bigger boy with hair a mess
The way they spin around the room
Well it makes me feel alive

Face is pressed into the carpet
Spin the record then restart it
Music is the way i pray
And it makes me feel alive.
