Lyrics[]

Those may be the most beautiful shades of red I've ever seen
Those may be the most beautiful shades of red I've ever seen
But don't be fooled
If the sun goes down on us here tonight
It's not gonna be alright anymore

None of this has anything really to do with us, that's my belief
As the desert sky throws the glowing neon into bold relief
Your mouth is open and your eyes are wide
Hold on because it's dark outside, yeah

The smell of roses comes thickly through the open window now
The smell of roses comes thickly through the open window now
And as the darkness closes in, our bodies draw the roses in
And those may be the most beautiful shades of red I've ever seen
