Old Red Eyes Is Back

Old Red eyes is back
Red from the night before the night before

Walked into the wrong bar walked into a door

Old Reds in town

And sitting late at night he doesnt make a sound

Just adding to the winkles on his deathly frown

Theyre only red from all the tears that I shouldve shed

Theyre only red from all the women that I couldve wed

So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
They could never be blue

They could never be blue

They could never be blue

They could never be blue

Listen up Old Red

You never listened to a word the doctor said

He tould you if you drank another youd be dead

Old Red Eyes is back

His shoulders ache all over and his brain is sore

He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw

Theyre only red from all the thoughts unused inside my head

Theyre only red from all the things I could have done instead

So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise

They could never be blue
They never could be blue
They could never be blue

They could never be blue

Blue is a streetr without an end

Red is the colour of my hell

Blue is a greeting from a friend

Red is the colour of farewell

Old Red he died

And every single landlord in the district cried

An empty bottle of whisky laying by his side

A lazy little tear running from each eye

They could never be blue

They could never be blue

They could never be blue

They could never be blue
