Red

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the french album sol en si



There's a chance we may lose it all

All those hollow souls

Can't hope to hold that wall



What i breathe used to be my life

How come a good thing dies

And the evil still survive





Oh i've got to paint it red

Wake up and colour all the pieces

Don't sleep without your faces, and

Oh i've got to paint it red

Put your eyes back in your head

And oh paint it red





Where's the dance they may never dance

All those open hands

Can't hope to have a chance





What i see used to be a smile

How come your lips are sealed

And your spirit never flies





Cash on delivery

That's all they ever said

Grey tones can't be trusted

I say paint it red
