Scarlet - A Song

When I look at your face I see scarlet
Not the blood of a foe
Nor the smile of a friend
I see scarlet
The color of a rose in full bloom
The color of your lips’ darkest hue
The color of a heart just meant for you
Cause I look at your eyes
All I see’s a sunrise
And I wanna be watching it with you
When I look at your eyes
I take all my lies
And I suddenly just wish them away.

Oh scarlet, oh scarlet
Scarlet what have you done?
You cloud my mind
And take my heart
And just leave a rose behind.

You’ve got the face
Of an angel
One that’s just not meant for me
Cause I see the way you look at her
And I know it's time to go
I’ve smiled a million times
But one of yours all but
Takes that breath of mine
And all I can do is look
At what I wish–
I wish were mine.

Oh scarlet, oh scarlet
Scarlet what have you done?
You cloud my mind
And take my heart
And just leave a rose behind.
