Scarlet

Caution to the wind that taunts me
Out on the boulevard
The tears from the clouds fall
On a face in the crowd

It's not a question of who I am or where I've been
I watch the people for hours
Throw back the curtain, I'm falling
Thunderclaps, it's hands applauding

Dress me up in scarlet
And carry me away beyond horizons
I wanna lose the quiet hours
And drive until the skyline turns to dusk
It's burning just for us
It's burning just for us

Drowning out the endless silence
The curse of lonely hearts
The cracks in the pavement
Swallow you whole

It's not a question of who I am or where I've been
I watch the people for hours
Throw back the curtain, I'm falling
Thunderclaps, it's hands applauding

Dress me up in scarlet
And carry me away beyond horizons
I wanna lose the quiet hours
And drive until the skyline turns to dusk

I know that all the lights are on
But no one's home where I come from
And I could lose my every hurt
And be the girl who rules the world

Dress me up in scarlet
And carry me away beyond horizons
I wanna lose the quiet hours
And drive until the skyline turns to dusk
It's burning just for us
It's burning just for us
