Red Head

She was blonde with trusting sad eyes While his eyes could never quite keep still Be careful what you wish for It's the story of the fall of Jack and Jill All those moons they would watch And he'd promised her she was his only love And someday soon he'd ask of her (to be his wife) But for now he said he had his race to run In the darkness, he went searching He couldn't see the true love he had found Empty-hearted, he had chеcked off Small and big boned, hair: black, blonde, and brown But hе never had a redhead And he'd heard about the way they were Wanderlust had almost left him Now all he needed was a redheaded girl She was faithful with she waited He was mad as he sought his redhaired prey She had grown a bit suspicious And to him these words she'd often say (are you mine?) yes I'm yours (all the time?) oh but of course So then why won't you commit your love to me? Now's the time oh you will be my blushing bride He knew they'd live ever after happily At the alter, in her sad her eyes He saw all the things she'd had him do Then he realized how much he loved her And that wanderlust was finally cured That night driving, new wife and husband They were struck head on by a drunken car He was okay but she sent sailing Through the windshield up towards the stars He cried "please don't die" To tell those lies he swore she had to be For those lies, inside his eyes This was not the way it was supposed to be As the blood flowed from her headwound Right down into those golden curls Then it struck him, his wish was granted He finally had a redhead girl Finally married, next day buried And the redhead come to haunt him every night
