Everything Was Red

Song Everything Was Red
Artist Rachael Sage
Album Delancey Street

Lyrics

I was just a girl who fell in love with Judy
everything was red it was never just her shoes
I was a girl overcome with envy
everything was gold if it belonged to you
oh to be open and willing to begin anew
oh to be open and willing to be a sister to you
oh to be open and willing to let the ghost be gone
oh to be open and willing to be the wiser one
you were just a girl when momma was afraid
she would leave us both well before her time
everything would change when you found your soul-mate
then you went away and I felt left behind
CHORUS
I spent a lifetime looking over my shoulder
for the one who was older to carry me down
to the river where we used to skip stones
before we skipped chapters to unwritten tomes...to begin a new...and be a sister to you...let the ghost be gone
oh to be open and willing to be the wiser one
