These are the lyrics for the second song in Taylor Swift’s iTunes countdown to her album, Red, the title track: Red. I find these very creative.
Loving him is like driving in a new Maserati down a dead-end street,
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly,
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you’ve already flying through the free-fall,
Like the colors in Autumn, so bright just before they lose it all,
Losing him was blue like I’d known,
Missing him was dark grey, all alone,
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’d never met,
But loving him was red.
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you,
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song,
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer,
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong,
Losing him was blue like I’d known,
Missing him was dark grey, all alone,
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’d never met,
But loving him was red,
Oh, red… burning red.
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself this time I gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible
And I should see it all in my head
Burning red
Loving him was red
Losing him was blue like I’d known
Missing him was dark grey, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’d never met
Cause loving him was red, yeah red
Burning red
And that’s why he’s spinning round my head
Comes back to me burning red
This love is like driving in a new Maserati down a dead-end street
I love the first verse 🙂
