Chris Rea - Red lyrics

Put your hand in the paintbox and choose Which one says the most about you I would have to pick the deepest shade The saddest shade of blue But red is colour i'd choose Red is colour i'd choose I set my soul long ago and far away Oh it's written down so deep it can never fade away Though so many years have come and gone Through my life one thing has stayed An eternal light that shines clean through the grey Red is colour i'd choose Deepest red on a sky of deepest blue It don't matter now if i should win If i should win or lose 'cos red is colour i'd choose If i waste my time away waiting just for you I don't care what others say 'cos baby i just love, love what you do Red is colour i'd choose Deepest red on a sky of deepest blue It don't matter now if i should win If i should win or lose 'cos red is colour i'd choose
