Ted Wulfers – Red Lipstick Napkin lyrics

Red Lipstick Napkin
Ted Wulfers

The carpeting of innocence scrapes away the dew
While dandelions blaze in the wind
Although I'd never met you I always had a clue
And all the things I said I do rescind
Because you said you loved me a message never heard
At least from all the women on the shore
You let me fly around your sky like a wise young bird
And when I am around you I want more

I know, I know
I know I love you

The memories of a romance can flash before the eyes
Like leaves in autumn almost on the fall
The visions and the nightmares of when you said goodbye
They throw my body limp against the wall
Do you recall old bookstores and running through the snow
Laughing running me holding your hand
A love has overcome me like you'll never know
I really, really want to be your man

I know, I know
I know I love you

Don't you need someone to hold you at night
Don't you want someone to treat you right

I know, I know
I know I love you

I know I cannot be with you for another day
Anxiety and happiness kick in
I really need to see you there is no other way
In this lonely life it's sink or sin
So now I look into your eyes and think about this song
And how you danced a melody so sweet
And then I said those words but I know they came out wrong
I kissed you from your lips down to your feet

I know, I know
I know I love you
I know, I know
I know I love you
