RARE "My Best Dress" - Florence and the Machine

This song is "My Best Dress" by Florence and the Machine.

It is one of my favourite songs by Florence. It is VERY sad, as you can tell by the lyrics. It is a very emotional song and I've shed a few tears while listening to it. Give it a chance.



LYRICS:
When your life is over I won't be sad or blue
I'll put on my fancy hat, lie down next to you
I'll kiss you once for life; I'll kiss you twice for death
Hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress

You look so angry when you sleep, your face a troubled frown
So I will smooth your furrowed brow as I lay you in the ground
I'll kiss you once for life; I'll kiss you twice for death
I'll hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress

And as the mourners pass me, I will smile and wave
Thank them for their sympathy and tell them I'll be brave
But once the wake is over, and I'm drunk and feeling fine
I'll go out there and find me another boy to pass the time

As we're dancing cheek to cheek and the lights are laid low
I'll request this song for you, laying in the ground below
Once the song is over, and it's time to go to bed
I'll leave him on the dance floor and return to you instead

I'll kiss you once for life; I'll kiss you twice for death
I'll hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress

I requested this song for last prom, and it was amazing because everyone paired up and slow danced. And the lights were dim, and it was SOO FRIGGEN VINTAGE - AWESOMENESS :D

[SilverDawnArrow]

Oh so beautiful. Flo, you're the best!

[SwrdBreak]

she should only do ''rough'' stuff like that, this is when she's at her best.

The unreleased, accoustic songs are definitely the best. This kinda reminds me of donkey kosh..

[IAmTheAwesomeD]

Ugh I want this to be released so I could listen to it in better quality. It's too damn amazing for it not to.

[mimeylikescats]

@Hayitscami It's unreleased.

[Hayitscami]

Wait... is this a single? Cuz its not on Lungs or Ceremonials...

[TheSetMeUp]

Some of the acoustic songs are their best, I love these ones that they didn't put on the album. Truly incredible artist. I love that almost all their songs have something different about them. Florence, is an angel and her band suits her perfectly. <3
