She wore a red velvet jacket
She wore a flower in her hair
She saw half a chance and she’d take it
She bared her heart to the open air
I know I’m I’m just living in my memory
I know, it’s just a game that I play
But I fear that in the course of my lifetime
She might yet fade away
Never shy of playing the fool
Still her gaze was clear and keen
She saw the surface she saw the heart of things
She saw the forest and every little creature in the trees
I know I’m I’m just living in my memory
I know, it’s just a game that I play
But I wonder if in the course of my lifetime
She might yet fade away
Bridge
I leave her room in my bed at night
Feel her wild hair tumbling round her head
In dreams see her toes poking out of her tights
As I re-run through everything she said
I wake up only to find I’m still dreaming
I turn around and see her smile at me
I catch the rolling peal of her laughter
I catch her scent in every little breath that I breathe
I know I’m just living in my memory
I know, it’s just a game that I play
But I know that in the course of my lifetime
She will not fade away
My baby looks good in red
Wild hair tumbling from her head
Toes sticking out the end of her tights
