[Verse 1]

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street

Faster than the wind, passion 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

[Chorus]

Losing him was blue like I'd never known

Missing him was dark gray, all alone

Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met

But loving him was red

[Post-Chorus]

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

But loving him was red

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

[Verse 2]

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

Memorizing him was as easy was 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

[Chorus]

Losing him was blue like I'd never known

Missing him was dark gray, all alone

Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met

But loving him was red

[Post-Chorus]

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

Oh, red (Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

Burning was red

(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)

[Outro]

We're burning red
