Текст песни Talking Scarlet

Carry no bright torches for me

You hide under the eiderdown
All you can't sweep underneath the carpet
When you cover your neighbor's wife
Scalding marks appear, you're talking scarlet
Kid yourself that it's platonic love

Best of friends, eyes all smiling
Watch them turn to iron filings

I will say late one evening while moonstruck beside her
I'll break the bonds of friendship one by one
I'll tell her I'm more than some friendly fellow
I will say, "How ya doin'?" So casually

She never suspects I'm harboring
Thoughts of kissing her neck
I think my mouth's been drinking
My basest thoughts do the thinking

You've no shame when Scarlet is your name
Trust in flames when Scarlet is your name

Yes, he's crying in his sleep
Yes he's thoroughly miserable for me
Losing his looks for me, losing
Certain themes keep recurring, boundaries start a blurring

I will say late one evening while moonstruck beside her
I'll break the bonds of friendship one by one, I'll tell her
I'm more than some friendly fellow, I will say "How ya doin'?"

So casually she never suspects
I'm harboring thoughts of kissing her neck
I think my mouth's been drinking
My basest thoughts do the thinking

Oh, my God someone tell her
I know she's a star, celestial feast
In the zoo of my heart she is thrown to the beast, tell her
The mouse here beside her won't always be denied her

I've no shame, Scarlet is my name
Trust in flames, Scarlet is my name

Carry no bright torches for me
