Bright As Red

Victor Morris

Compositor: Victor Morris

Early today I tried to write you down
To tell you all I think about you
Not even half of what I wondered came to my hands
But for now this is what I have

You’re like an intense fire burning in my chest
Like a flower dancing in my deepest thoughts
Yeah

Of love desire and perception
Reached your scarlet soul
And all the stars in your head
Keep your heart burning on

Everything you can come up with
Nothing can compare with that second first kiss
Nothing can compete with those days you’ll miss
And I know for sure you’ll still as bright as red

I painted all my fears on the beauty of
The blank canvas in your mind
You took it all and turned into love
Then said you were mine

Poets and playwrights will immortalize our history
The light, the thrill, the Moon through you and me

I was left broken into pieces when you were gone
Now we’re here to prove that our fire isn’t done
Eagerness was all I felt til the day has come

Despite all the things we said
One thing never changed, well, that you knew
As the autumn leaves fell I waited for you

Of love desire and perception
Reached your scarlet soul
And all the stars in your head
Keep your heart aimed at love

Desire and perception yeah
I reached your scarlet soul
And all your galaxies, baby
Keep your heart burning on

Everything you can come up with
Nothing can compare with that second first kiss
Nothing can compete with those days you’ll miss
And I know for sure you’ll still as bright as
Nothing can compete with those days you’ll wish
All that you’ve cursed so far
