Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wash my face, with blue water
Lay my head, on white linens
Morning comes, drink black coffee
Then I play my song on red guitar
[Verse 2]
Take my flight, through blue heavens
Walk my path, in green gardens
Drive my car, on black highway
Then I play my song on red guitar
[Verse 3]
Every day, the colors come and dance for me
Every night they fade, then disappear
We are merely shadows floating in this world
We got nothing to lose, we got nothing to fear
Oh no
No, no, no, no, no, no
[Verse 4]
Every day, the colors come and dance for me
Every night they fade, then disappear
We are merely shadows, floating through this world
We got nothing to lose, we got nothing to fear
Oh no, no
[Verse 5]
Drink my wine, from pink glasses
Take the stage with purple princes
Love my man, yellow roses
Then I play my song on red guitar
I play my song on red guitar
Play my song, on red guitar
