There's a warning in the comfort That you're too good to be true They tell me over and over There's someone better for you You're the warmth I feel beside me And the fear of growing cold The continual reminder Of the risk we take when we get involved I've been warned enough You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise ♪ At the pace that we've been running When our lungs begin to sting I'm hearing over and over "Moderation in all things" So you'll hopefully forgive me If I cannot slow this down When my body bends to weakness Your voice will be the sound That conceals the pain You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise Love is one-way street Headed away from me Love is a one-way street Headed away from me Away from me ♪ You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise You were the only red flag The only red flag that I could never raise Love is one-way street Headed away from me Love is a one-way street Headed away from me
