John Hiatt - Cherry Red lyrics

I was thinking back

To the first time we met

Over plangent chords

In a sad vignette

You were waving goodbye

In a cherry red corvette

And your lips were too

Cherry red that is, with the sky so blue

It was almost mean and your eyes were too

So blue that is, now I am too

And my heart burns cherry red for you

Now my heart burns cherry red for you

Like a fire of beech wood, the saw don't like it

But you get some cut, one match will strike it

And the embers glow till the wee small hours

When the old seems almost new

That's when my heart burns cherry red for you

It was cherry red with custom flames

At the hot rod show when the Kingsmen came

And that bass guitar, it rattled my frame

And it shook you too

The corvette was Big Daddy Roth's design

Get your picture for a dollar

And have it signed

First you got yours then I got mine

And my heart burned cherry red for you

Now my heart burns cherry red for you

Like a fire of beech wood, the saw don't like it

But you get some cut, one match will strike it

And the embers glow till the wee small hours

When the old seems almost new

That's when my heart burns cherry red for you

That's when my heart

Burns cherry red

My heart burns cherry red

That's when my heart burns

Cherry red for you

Now that fake blue sky,

It sure looks real

Like you were goin'

To California to make a deal

With the God of youth,

With the man of steel

Waving toodle-oo

Now if I was young,

I might track you down

But this old picture is all I found

Now my bones are shakin',

My teeth are ground down

And my heart burns cherry red for you

Now my heart burns cherry red for you

Like a fire of beech wood, the sun don't like it

But you get some cut, one match will strike it

And the embers glow till the wee small hours

When the old seems almost new

That's when my heart burns cherry red

That's when my heart burns cherry red

That's when my heart burns cherry red for you
