Savannah (Part One) Lyrics

To the bottom, dear, I had to fall
You really caught me
You really caught me, dear
At the bottom where I fall

And slowly, dear, ask would you dance with me
Here's the shades down
The lights off

I didn't know you
And everything I do
Done badly

Now I'll love you always
Even when I say
Distract me

And sit out tonight at some strange place
If we have no friends here
Why have few to begin with?

To wake next to you in the morning
And good morning to you
How do you do?
A "good morning" to you
And more covers for you
Sleep soundly, dear
Cause I have to go

And I'll love you always
And when we leave this place
And drive back to Carolina
And down to Savannah and stay

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
