Blood Red

Drive upstate for the changing of the leaves

And I asked you, which color would you be?

You said blood red and asked me what I'd choose

I said dead brown because long ago I fell for you

Hold me close like the darkness before the light

Holy ghosts haunt the hallways inside my mind

I can't cope thinking one day you'll say goodbye, I

Sometimes I don't know who to be

But you see more than what I lead them to believe

Your dress, blood red, reminds me of that drive

Will your color change or will you always be mine?

So, hold me close like the darkness before the light

Holy ghosts haunt the hallways inside my mind

I can't cope, thinking one day you'll say goodbye, I

Like a tide pulls an anchor

At a ship in the bay

If I hold on too tightly, I'll push you away

But I've never been this far under the weight of something I can't escape

So, hold me close like the darkness before the light

Holy ghosts haunt the hallways inside my mind

I can't cope, thinking one day you'll say goodbye, I, not tonight

Hold me close like the darkness before the light

Holy ghosts haunt the hallways inside my mind

I can't cope, thinking one day you'll say goodbye, I

You'll say goodbye, you'll say goodbye

But not tonight
