Hannah

Lyrics

I lost all of my vanity when I peered into the pool
 I lost all of my innocence when I fell in love with you
 I never knew a man could fall so far 'til I landed here
 Where all of my wounds, they turned into gold when I kissed your hair
 Now come to me, Hannah
 Hannah, won't you come on to me?
 And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
 If you'll just be kind to me
 ♪
 Ask her why she cries so loud, will not say a word
 Eyes like ice and hands that shake, she takes what she deserves
 To celebrate her emptiness, a cold and lonely room
 You sweep the floors with your long flowered dress if you cannot find a broom
 Now come to me, Hannah
 Hannah, won't you come on to me?
 And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
 If you'll just be kind to me
 ♪
 She got hair that flows right down, right down to the backs of her knees
 Papa, he was a preaching man and the Lord is hard to please
 So she come down from the Ozark Hills to these very streets to roam
 With a banjo and a Bible and a fine tooth comb
 Now come to me, Hannah
 Hannah, won't you come on to me?
 And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
 If you'll just be kind to me
 Now, I'd walk one mile on just broken glass to fall down at your feet
 ♪
 Hannah, you're the queen of the street
 ♪
 I climb the tree with my Hannahlee, my intentions, they were pure
 Oh, the breeze did whip and I lost my grip and I tumbled towards the Earth
 Well, you never would guess who it was that stood below, His name I will never tell
 But His eyes were clear and His arms were strong and He caught me as I fell
 Now come to me, Hannah
 Hannah, won't you come on to me?
 And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
 If you'll just be kind to me
 Now, I'd walk one mile on just broken glass to fall down at your feet
 ♪
 Hannah, you're the queen of the street
 The queen of the street
