Indiego North! - Red Alert Lyrics

Let me take you back to when I was just eleven
Even then I knew what it was like to be in heaven
Every time I talked to her she would laugh
Everywhere she walked I followed the same path
So why would she
Why would she
Lie to me

People kept asking me and I'd given up denying
Said she had a crush on this other boy - and I was trying
But crushes and love are so far apart
As she very well knew deep down in his heart
So why would she
Why would she
Lie to me

She never admitted she loved me
Couldn't bare to say those precious words
She never admitted she loved me
The situation was truly absurd

My heart on red alert
Love equals hurting
My heart on red alert
Love equals hurting

And ever since we said goodbye on that fateful day
I've passed up every girl that comes on along my way
I've laughed and smiled in all the right places
I've seen the beauty and outline of their faces
But I always know love just equals hurt
So I keep my heart on on red alert

Now I sit here all alone thinking what might have been
And I still hear her laughing in my dreams, so it seems
And I wonder where on earth she is now?
Maybe explaining to some poor boy how
She must lie
She must lie
To pass him by

She never admitted she loved me
Couldn't bare to say those precious words
She never admitted she loved me
The situation was truly absurd

My heart on read alert
Love equals hurting
My heart on read alert
Love equals hurting
My heart on read alert
Love equals hurting
My heart on read alert
Love equals hurting
