[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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 youre 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 Id never known
~#**************#~
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
~#**************#~
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody youve never met
~#**************#~
But loving him was red
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
Loving him was red
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
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 theres no right answer
~#**************#~
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Losing him was blue like Id never known
~#**************#~
Missing him was dark gray, all alone (Whoa)
~#**************#~
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody youve never met
~#**************#~
But loving him was red
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
Oh, red (Red, red)
~#**************#~
Burning red (Red, red)
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
~#**************#~
Tell myself its time now, gotta let go
~#**************#~
But moving on from him is impossible
~#**************#~
When I still see it all in my head
~#**************#~
In burning red
~#**************#~
Burning, it was red
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, losing him was blue like Id never known
~#**************#~
Missing him was dark gray, all alone (Whoa)
~#**************#~
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody youve never met
~#**************#~
‘Cause loving him was red
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Red, red) Yeah, yeah, red (Red, red)
~#**************#~
Burning red (Red, red)
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
[Breakdown]
~#**************#~
And thats why (Red, red) hes spinning round in my head
~#**************#~
Comes back to me (Red, red), burning red
~#**************#~
(Red, red) Yeah, yeah
~#**************#~
(Red, red)
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
His love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
