Lyrics
How I Miss Sally Bray
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My hand hovers over a button of self-destruct
It won't let me press down, oh I wish that it would
I've lost something that was an integral part of me
She lived in a red- brick house in halewood
She wore a hearing aid that screamed louder than us
I've lost someone that was an integral part of me
Ignorance is bliss, she preached to me
But how can I ignore someone that makes me so happy
Oh sally where'd you go?
It's not impeccable wit that makes me smile
But it's a shock to the heart it only lasts a short while
She had something that made me fall to my knees
She had no respect for the rules of trivial pursuit
And a temper that had never even lit its fuse
Her purple hair and smile were the highlight of my holidays
Ignorance is bliss, she preached to me
But how can I ignore someone that makes me so happy
Oh sally where'd you go?
How I miss, how I miss oh how I miss you, sally bray
Oh she taught me enough for all the things I could have said
How I love, how I love oh how I love you sally bray
Oh she taught me enough for all the love I could have gave
Oh sally where'd you go?
