Red Light
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You can't love me, you're not allowed to
'Cause if you did I'd probably run from you
You can't hate me though you probably do
'Cause then I might just die and have to blame you
I can't breathe but maybe that's okay
Maybe I'll just save it for another rainy day
I can't sleep but maybe that's alright
I can save my sleeping for another empty night
Kiss me at the red light one more time
Every time I think of you feels like a crime
I could be green, red, orange, purple or blue
Only if it means that I'm keeping you
You gotta love me 'cause now you have to
And if you don't, well I might just have to kill you
You can't forget me, I wouldn't let you
'Cause if you did I would run into the deep blue
I can't eat but maybe that's okay
I can't save my eating for another weekday
I can't cry but I guess it's for the best
Oh honey I can't take it, you're just better than the rest
Kiss me at the red light one more time
Every time I think of you feels like a crime
I could be green, red, orange, purple or blue
Only if it means that I'm keeping you
You can't love me, you're not allowed to
'Cause if you did I'd probably run from you
You can't hate me though you probably do
'Cause then I might just die and have to blame you
Kiss me at the red light one more time
Every time I think of you feels like a crime
I could be green, red, orange, purple or blue
Only if it means that I'm keeping you
