Red Eye - David Wilcox
Written by:David Wilcox
I can run I can fly
Jump at the sky
I'm getting good exercise
I can fail I can fall
Learn from it all
Use it to make me wise
If there's a lesson inside even losing my pride
Finding out that I was wrong
It all turns for the good if it's understood
I shouldn't have to wait too long
To learn and get burned
If I only see what I dream to be
Photoshop the girl I knew
You were so beautiful
I retouch so much cruel
The red eye turns to blue
I could trust like a fool
Be somebody's tool
Finding out that I was used
Make a move too soon
Then howl at the moon
For all the good that would do
If there's something I learn
I keep what I earn
Trade it for the price I pay
And it's usually fine wasting my time
As long as I can find a way to grow I know
If I only see what I dream to be
Photoshop the girl I knew
You were so beautiful
I retouch so much cruel
The red eye turns to blue
Every time I forgive
The way that you live
You made me do tricks for you
I could try for the prize
But the ring's the wrong size
Never gonna make it through
Wanna win something big
But the contest is rigged
And every piece of bling is trash
You could rattle your keys
And make me say please
As if I need a hallway pass to leave
But I'm free
If I only see what I dream to be
Photoshop the girl I knew
You were so beautiful
I retouch so much cruel
The red eye turns to blue
The red eye turns to blue
The red eye turns to blue
