Give me a 50's style dress

"I worked so hard for that man and he worked me to the bone, said success wont belong he bought that old factory, cause the rich are born free and thats how you want to be.
So I looked down from the rooftops one night and I knew I could go far if you never left my sight,
But this will never be what I want in some fancy restaurant like now this will never be what I want, and all I ever wanted was you.

He took the drinks from our hands so I took you in my arms we watched the sun go down
Then I knew I had been taken for a fool, I took you for granted I took fate as a rule
But this will never be what I want in some fancy restaurant like now.
This'll never be what I want and all I ever wanted was you.
"

"A harbour dance, I didn't live my youth with sufficient recklessness
Yeah I envy your youth, yes I envy your youth, I envy your youth, yes I envy your youth.
But looking at you now girl
I know we'll never be haunted by such doubts.
Yes it's clear as the day yes it's clear as the day
It's clear as the day, yes it's clear as the day
I once had big dreams like you girl
But they're hard to sustain in this world

Oh we could have hit class, the kind people can't see past
Yeah I should have known better, yes I should have known better
Oh its too painful to look at you.
The memories you bring to the front of my mind
The regrets you bring to the front of my mind
I once had big dreams like you girl
But they're hard to sustain in this world

A harbour dance I didn't live my youth with sufficient recklessness
I envy your youth, yes I envy your youth, I envy your youth, yes I envy your youth
"


I will live my youth with sufficient recklessness, I will live my entire life with sufficient recklessness
