Elton John - Red lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the french album sol en si<br><br>There's a chance we may lose it all<br>All those hollow souls<br>Can't hope to hold that wall<br><br>What I breathe used to be my life<br>How come a good thing dies<br>And the evil still survive<br><br>Oh I've got to paint it red<br>Wake up and colour all the pieces<br>Don't sleep without your faces, and<br>Oh I've got to paint it red<br>Put your eyes back in your head<br>And oh paint it red<br><br>Where's the dance they may never dance<br>All those open hands<br>Can't hope to have a chance<br><br>What I see used to be a smile<br>How come your lips are sealed<br>And your spirit never flies<br><br>Cash on delivery<br>That's all they ever said<br>Grey tones can't be trusted<br>I say paint it red
