I Saw Red
Warrant Lyrics

Ooh yeah
Expressing an emotional reaction to something that is surreal.

Ooh it must be magic
The singer perceives their relationship as being special and mystical.

How inside your eyes
The singer is mesmerized by the depth of their partner's eyes.

I see my destiny
The artist feels that their future is intertwined with their partner's and sees them as their soulmate.

Every time we kiss
The artist feels an overwhelming rush of love and passion when they share a kiss with their partner.

I feel you breathe your love so deep inside of me
The singer feels their partner's love is so powerful that they can physically feel it in their body.

If the moon and stars should fall
The singer emphasizes the depth of their love by comparing their devotion to their partner to the immensity of the sky.

They'd be easy to replace
The artist feels that their partner is irreplaceable, and nothing in the universe could ever compare to their love.

I would lift you up to heaven
The artist would do anything to make their partner feel loved and cherished.

And you would take their place
The artist's partner is so special that they would take the place of anything in the world, even celestial bodies.

Then I saw red
The mood of the song changes, and the singer's emotions are heightened. They become angry and hurt.

When I opened up the door
The artist discovered something that shattered their heart.

My heart just spilled onto the floor
The singer is overcome with emotion and feels as if their heart has been physically broken.

And I didn't need to see his face
The singer's reaction wasn't based on who they saw, but rather who they were thinking of.

I saw yours
The singer was thinking of their partner and felt betrayed by them.

I don't think I'm gonna love you anymore
The artist no longer feels the same depth of love for their partner and is contemplating the end of their relationship.

Everyday I wake up
The artist thinks about their partner every day and appreciates having them in their life.

I thank God that you are still a part of me
The singer feels grateful to have their partner in their life.

We've opened up the door to which
The singer and their partner have cultivated a deep, intimate relationship that is not easily found.

So many people never find the key
The artist recognizes that many people struggle to find true, lasting love.

And if the sun should ever fail to send its light
The artist again emphasizes the depth of their love by comparing it to a catastrophic event.

We would burn a thousand candles
The artist would do whatever it takes to keep their love alive.

And make everything alright
The singer feels that their love can conquer all and that they can overcome anything as long as they have each other.

I've been hurt
The artist has experienced pain in the past.

And I've been blind
The singer has been unable to see what was happening in their relationship.

I'm not sure that I'll be fine
The singer is uncertain about the future of their relationship and their emotional state.

I never thought it would end this way
The singer is surprised and devastated by the events that caused their relationship to crumble.

Mmh, and I didn't need to see his face
The artist's anger and hurt is directed towards their partner, not the person they saw.

Oh I saw yours
The artist's pain is much deeper since it comes from someone they loved and trusted.
