Red Lyrics

Somebody turned the sky to grey.
Somebody came and took my colour away.
As I look around this little world
of Black and White and Red,
It could be monotone,
though its not quite there yet.
Nobody told me they were here.
Nobody said that there"d be no-one left.
Well if the party"s over,
it"s a shame nobody said,
Re-colour this city, I need to paint it Red.

Give me gold, but its red I see,
its what silver means to me.
Like the perfect dawn in every morning,
the fire beneath my feet.
Its like looking down on the rusty
crown, of an auburn headed queen,
Its red, its red I see.

Why would you smile at me right now?
Why would you laugh at me,
my world is upside down.
If I were you I"d turn your back,
and bow your simple head,
You"ll rue the day,
you laughed at me
And turned my blue sky red.
Give me gold, but its red I see,
its what silver means to me.
Like the perfect dawn in every morning,
the fire beneath my feet.
Its like looking down on the rusty crown,
of an auburn headed queen,
Its red, its red I see.
I don"t know why they wanted to
...
Stop me living my life with you.
Darling, come fly with me,
and take this leap eternally.

And the time will come to carry on,
the red sky will abate.
And those we love will rise above,
and smile again one day.
And the Fathers, Brothers, Sisters,
Lovers remember when they left
And you and I will
wonder why, but never forget.

Don"t colour me Red.
