Long Red Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long red
Flowing through my mind
Dream here, dreamin' there
Two pieces all the time
Sobered
Whispers is in my dreams
Bits and pieces in my arms
This is always what it seems

[Chorus 1]
Long red
Helpin' you to find a day
Bright red
How am I gonna find a way?

[Verse 2]
Bright red
You have changed me too
Stranger now it seems somehow
Bright red has turned to blue
Long red
Tears and shades of gray
I have changed you, I've lost
Forever from today
[Chorus 2]
Long red
Helpin' you to find a day
Bright red
How am I gonna find a way?

[Verse 3]
Long red
Tears and shades of gray
I have changed you, I have lost
Forever from today

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
