If you wear red tonight
Remember what I said tonight
For red is the colour my baby wore
And what's more, it's true
Yes it is

Scarlet were the clothes she wore
Everybody knows I'm sure
I would remember all the things we planned
Understand it's true
Yes, it is true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her
But it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the colour that will make me blue
In spite of you, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her
But it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the colour that will make me blue
In spite of you it's true
Yes it is, it's true
