Lyrics Cassandra Wilson

Cassandra Wilson

Red Guitar

Wash my face with blue water

Lay my head on white linens

Morning comes, drink black coffee

Then i play my song on red guitar

Take my flight through blue heavens

Walk my path in green gardens

Drive my car on black highway

Then I play my song on red guitar

Everyday the colors come and dance for me

Every night they fade and disappear

We are merely shadows floating in this world

We got nothing to lose, we got nothing to fear

oh no, no...

Drink my wine from pink glasses

Take the stage with purple princes

Love my man, yellow roses

Then i play my song on red guitar

I play my song on red guitar

Play my song on red guitar
