RED

Oh, red, was the color of her lips the night that we met

that autumn breeze blowin' her cotton dress

So dangerous, but as beautiful as it gets

And the sky turned red like a watercolor painting east to west

She had me hanging on a limb for that first kiss

Hopin' that she'd paint her shade of red on my lips

Now when I see red, your memory comes rushin' through my head

And when I see red, there's nothin' I can do to outrun what I left

Oh, red, forgive me for all the time that I missed

And all the little things I threw away for this
