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

Loving him 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 spinning '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
