lyrics

Red skies and red waters - soon to be black and blue
The sun’s going down now - and I’m going down too
I’ve been so high - I’ve been so high on you
Red skies and red waters - soon to be black and blue

Sirens are approaching - turn them all back around
If anything here’s on fire - let it burn to the ground
I could beg you don’t leave me - I could beg you to leave me alone
Sirens are approaching - send them all back home

Well I have been in your shoes - they led me here & there
Had myself some good times - even grew my hair
Those same shoes took me walking - a most comfortable pair
Walk on, walk on, walk on if you dare
Walk on - shoes like those are rare

Well, I must’ve been sleeping - had a sweet little dream
When I managed to wake - the ache was unforeseen
I can’t tell you what’s right now - nothing would be more wrong
Red skies and red waters - what I thought was the dawn
