Red
Coven 13 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tonight I saw you
Standin all alone
You looked like you were
Just waiting for me
But when I saw you
Something came over me
My heart beat in time with yours
I knew tonight was the night

Red, red red red
Red, was the color
That I gave to you
Red was the color (was the color of sex)
That you gave me


So come on with me
I'll take you higher
Than you've ever been before
Just hold on tight, just hold on
Then you, and then I and then we
And then me

Red red red red
Red, was the color (the color of life)
That I gave to you
Red, was the color (the color of death)
That you gave to me
Red was the color that I gave to you
Red was the color that you gave to me
Your red all over me
Your red all over me




Your red all over me
Your red all over me

Tonight I saw you
I observed you this evening


Standin all alone
Standing without any company


You looked like you were
Your appearance led me to believe that you were


Just waiting for me
Simply anticipating my arrival


But when I saw you
However, when I glanced at you


Something came over me
I was suddenly overcome by an intense sensation


My heart beat in time with yours
My heartbeat synchronized with yours


I knew tonight was the night
I was convinced that this evening was the appropriate moment to take action


Red, red red red
Red, red, red, red

Red was the hue


That I gave to you
The color I presented to you


Red was the color (was the color of sex)

So come on with me
Hence, come along with me

Than you've ever been before
Above the level that you have ever experienced


Just hold on tight, just hold on
Merely hold on to me tightly, only cling to me


Then you, and then I and then we
Firstly you, next me, and after that, together we will


And then me
Finally me

Red was the hue that represents vitality


That I gave to you
The shade I provided to you

Do you still have it. And would you be interested in selling it ? I have been looking for a cleaner copy.

I implore you to let a label reissue it. Or do it yourself if you can.

I Ate The Anarchist

So, with them re-recording Frost Giants for the 2013 album, I take it slim chance for a proper release of this album? :(
