If you wear red tonight,
what I said tonight.
For red is the colour that my baby wore,
And what is more, it's true,
Yes it is.

Scarlet were the clothes she wore,
Everybody knows I am sure.
I would all the things we planned,
Understand, it's true,
Yes it is, it's true.
Yes it is.

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride.
Yes it is, yes it is.
Oh, yes it is, yeah.

Please don't wear red tonight."
This is what I said tonight.
For red is the colour that will make me blue,
In spite of you, it's true,
Yes it is, it's true.
Yes it is.

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride.
Yes it is, yes it is.
Oh, yes it is, yeah.

"Please don't wear red tonight."
This is what I said tonight.
For red is the colour that will make me blue,
In spite of you, it's true,
Yes it is, it's true.
