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
