Red Like My Open Heart

it was after last night
when i dreamt of your eyes
and they showed me the truth
in a world full of lies

love is written
all over me.
can you feel it on my hips?
can you taste it on my lips?

i understood you at last
why slow down? there’s no time
so fall with me. fall fast
i am yours, you are mine

love is written
all over me.
do you see it in my screams?
do you hear it in my dreams?

young i may be but
not too young to know
that this chance won’t come twice
so let go, love, let go

love is written
all over me.
did you paint it like an art?
did you brand it on my heart?

i leave life in my wake
you are my last mistake.
you’re the one right decision
that i’ll ever make.
