Lyrics Red - Daniel Merriweather

Red

I’m alright standing in the streetlights here
Is this meant for me?
Is my time on the outside over?
We don’t know how you’re spending all of your days
Knowing that love isn’t here
You see the pictures but you don’t know their names
'Cause love isn’t here
And I can’t do this by myself
All of these problems, they’re all in your head
And I can’t be somebody else
You took something perfect and you painted it red
No sympathy when shouting out is all you know
Behind your lies I can see the secrets you don’t show
But we don’t know how you’re spending all of your days
Knowing that love isn’t here
Oh, you see the pictures but you don’t know their names
'Cause love isn’t here
And I can’t do this by myself
All of these problems, they’re all in your head
And I can’t be somebody else
You took something perfect and you painted it red
You take the best things from me
Then everything gets empty
That’s not a world that I need
Oh, you take the best things from me
Then everything gets empty
That’s not a world that I need
And I can’t do this by myself
All of these problems, they’re all in your head
And I can’t be somebody else
You took something perfect and you painted it
I can’t do this by myself
All of these problems, they’re all in your head
And I can’t be somebody else
You took something perfect and you painted it red
Ooh, you took something perfect and you painted it red
Oh, oh, ooh, you took something perfect and you painted it red
Oh nah, you took something perfect and you painted it red
