If you were red tonight,
Remember what I said tonight,
For red is the colour that my baby wore,
And what’s more, it’s true,
Yes, it is.

Scarlet were the clothes she wore,
Everybody knows, I’m sure.
I would remember all the things we planned,
Understand, it’s true,
Yes, it is, it’s true,
Yes, it is.

Day-Dee-Dee-Dee-Day-
Dee-Doy-Dee-Dee-Doy...
If I could forget her,
But it’s my pride, yes, it is,
Yes, it is,
Oh, yes, it is, yeah.

Please don’t wear red tonight,
This is what I said tonight.
For red is the colour that will make me blue,
In spite of you, it’s true,
Yes, it is, it’s true,
Yes, it is, it’s true.
