Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Brass buttons, green silks
And silver shoes
Warm evenings, pale mornin's
Bottled blues
[Verse 2]
And tiny golden pins
That she wore up in her hair
Brass buttons, green silks
And silver shoes
[Verse 3]
My mind was young
And then it grew
My thoughts known only
By a few
[Verse 4]
A dream much too real
To be leaned against too long
And all the time I
Guess she knew
[Verse 5]
Her thoughts still dance
Inside my head
Her comb still lies
Beside my bed
[Verse 6]
But the sun comes up without her
It doesn't know she's gone
And it remembers nothing
That she said
[Verse 7]
Brass buttons, green silks
And silver shoes
Warm evenings, pale mornin's
Bottled blues
[Verse 8]
And tiny golden pins
That she wore up in her hair
Brass buttons, green silks
And silver shoes
[Verse 9]
Brass buttons, green silks
And silver shoes
