Red

What does it say to you?
What words can be said?
When i ask you to describe
Red, red.

What thoughts form within you
And race round your head?
Try to articulate
Red, red

It's the colour of the blood
That runs in my veins
And that won't alter
Whether love goes or remains

It's the sun setting
At the close of the day
When thoughts might turn
To those far away

Those not in your arms
Where you want them to be
Their pretty smile
You're so longing to see

Stir the fire in them
Flames burning their soul
Emotions completely
Fulfilling and whole

Are there things that disturb
Or fill you with dread?
The anger, the passion of
Red, red

Blinded by the mist
That blocks the way ahead
Just no escaping
Red, red

It's the colour of the blood
That runs in my veins
Hope your love always
Remains, remains

It's the sun setting
At the close of the day
Sometimes you're so near
And so far away

You're not in my arms
Where I want you to be
That pretty smile
I'm so longing to see

You stir the fire
Flames burning my soul
Emotions completely
Fulfilling and whole

My words at an end
Everything you have read
Sums up what it means to me
Red, red
