Red is the colour that spins me around Lifts me up to the moon And then drops me right down And it paints through my soul lightning bolt's what it's called And it takes me to places I just didn't know of Take it away and be true to the day Oh there's always a way Yeh there's always a way Be who you want so unique and just one And don't give a damn now what they say Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay Holding the paintbrush in my trembling hands Painting my path on this glorious land Doing things wild that make me feel alive Spinning it round until the end of my time Coz' Red is the colour that spins me around Lifts me up to the moon And then drops me right down And it paints through my soul lightning bolt's what it's called And it takes me to places I just didn't know of Take it away and be true to the day Oh there's always a way Yeh there's always a way Be who you want so unique and just one And don't give a damn now what they say Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay I close up my eyes I swing into my dreams I follow them closely to see what they mean I get out of my way to let them pour through My heart is my guide babe here this one's for you Coz' Red is the colour that spins me around Lifts me up to the moon And then drops me right down And it paints though my soul lightning bolt's what it's called And it takes me to places I just didn't know of Take it away and be true to the day Oh there's always a way Yeh there's always a way Be who you want so unique and just one And don't give a damn now what they say Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
