red

loving him is like driving a new maserati down a dead-end street

faster than the wind

passionate as sin

ending so suddenly

loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall

like the colors in autumn

so bright just before they lose it all

losing him was blue like i'd never known

missing him was dark grey all alone

forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met

but loving him was red

loving him was red

touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you

memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song

fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer

regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong

losing him was blue like i'd never known

missing him was dark grey all alone

forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met

but loving him was red

oh

red

burning red

remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes

tell myself it's time now

gotta let go

but moving on from him is impossible

when i still see it all in my head

in burning red

burning

it was red

oh

losing him was blue like i'd never known

missing him was dark grey all alone

forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met

'cause loving him was red

yeah

yeah

red

we're burning red

and that's why he's spinnin' 'round in my head

comes back to me

burning red

yeah

yeah

his love was like driving a new maserati down a dead-end street
