Love is red/green

You want love 
You want it now 
But all the colour’s gone 
We have lived in darkness for too long 
 
Love is red 
And love is green 
And most things in between 
Black and blue 
 
No matter what I do 
Can’t forget those troubled times 
Mix and match from shades we left behind 
 
You still want to make me pay 
This is why I’m leaving town today 
 
You want love 
I’ve always tried 
But now the well’s run dry 
We are in a desert, you and I 
 
Love is red 
And love is green 
And all the colours in between, I’ve seen 
 
It’s obscene, we have to let it die 
Can’t forget those troubled times 
Mix and match from shades we left behind 
 
You still want to make me pay 
This is why I’m leaving town today 
 
Love 
(Is red) 
Love 
(Is green) 
Love 
(Is red) 
Love 
(Is green) 
Love
