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 you're already flying through the free fall

Like the colors in autumn, so bright, just before they lose it all
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like tryin' know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
♪
Loving him was red

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 there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out
That love could be that strong
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like tryin' know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Oh, red
Burning red
♪
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself, "It's 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

Oh, losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like tryin' to know
Somebody you never met
'Cause loving him was red
Yeah, yeah, red
We're burning red
♪
And that's why he's spinning 'round in my head
Comes back to me, burning red
Yeah, yeah
His love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
