Cottonfield - The Vespers

You had a black suit born in the cotton field

I had a white dress born in the cotton field

Our favourite game was born in the cotton field

Oh oh oh

We were five when you moved in next door

And became my best friend

Found a chest upstairs in the attic

With dress up clothes therein

Much too big

You had a black suit born in the cotton field

I had a white dress born in the cotton field

Our favourite game was born in the cotton field

Oh oh oh

Standing in the field all dressed up

To play wedding day

Every time you would try to kiss me

And I would run away

That’s all we played

You had a black suit born in the cotton field

I had a white dress born in the cotton field

Our favourite game was born in the cotton field

Oh oh oh

All those years I never knew

That I would fall in love with you

Practicing for the day

The day it wasn’t just a game

You had a black suit born in the cotton field

I had a white dress born in the cotton field

You knelt down on one knee in the cotton field

Oh oh oh

You had a black suit born in the cotton field

I had a white dress born in the cotton field

We said our vows both standing in the cotton field

Oh oh oh
