Rachael Sage - EVERYTHING WAS RED

I was just a girl who fell in love with Judy
Everything was red it was never just her shoes
I was just a girl overcome with envy
Everything was gold if it belonged to you

Oh, to be open and willing, to begin anew
Oh, to be open and willing, to be a sister to you
Oh, to be open and willing, to let the ghost be gone
Oh, to be open and willing, to be the wiser one

You were just a girl when mama was afraid
She would leave us both well before her time
Everything would change when you found your soul mate

Then you went away but I felt left behind

Oh, to be open and willing, to begin anew
Oh, to be open and willing, to be a sister to you
Oh, to be open and willing, to let the ghost be gone
Oh, to be open and willing, to be the wiser one

I spent a lifetime looking over my shoulder
For the one who was older to carry me down
To the river where we used to skip stones
Before we skipped chapters to unwritten tomes

I spent a lifetime looking over my shoulder
For the one who was older to carry me down
To the river where we used to skip stones
Before we skipped chapters of unwritten tomes

To begin anew, and be a sister to you
To let the ghost be gone
Oh, to be open and willing, to be the wiser one
