Eska Mtungwazi - Red lyrics

[VERSE 1] Dawn in crimson, just like the tide Solid ocean, shore's behind Head for the edge of the world when you finally push the boat out Knowing only what you know now [Chorus 1] And all that you learn you'll have to forget - forget Painting it over again and again - red, red! See for yourself [VERSE 2] Sunken treasures - you buried them deep Currents unseen take you down, taking you down, down Taking you down, down, taking you down Belly feels awful weak You only see what you see now [Chorus 2] And all that you learn you'll have to forget - painting it red! [BRIDGE] With the blood ink in your veins Take those sails and paint them red No escape from the rise and the fall of the waves For the unwritten days and those days you cannot change On the journey from womb to the grave, many things to forgive and forget Ah heartache! No need to regret But there are some things in this life that are heartache - red! [Chorus 3] And all that you learn you'll have to forget - it never comes easy Painting it over again and again - red, red! [INTERLUDE] They were patiently waiting for her to arrive Finally she came ashore, late to her own life [OUTRO] We'll cross that when we come to it - brace yourself We'll cross that when we come to it We'll come to it - brace yourself
