Love Came To Me Dressed In Red Lyrics & Chords By John Francis

My love came to me dressed in red, red as rubies of her lips, and battlefields where armies bled dying for their flags, crying for their gods, gods who bleed like men.
My love came to be painted blue, that twilight blue of summers past, blue as the words I needed you to say before you left, blue as tides return, blue as music burns.

It was only for a moment then we're gone, like horses over hills and setting suns
My love comes back to me dressed up in songs.

My love came to be bound in black, blacker than the moons eclipse, blacker still then ravens wings shadowing my dreams and the nightmares of my youth, she was darker than the truth.
My love fell on me in tongues of prayer, a hymn of praise poured from her wrist, I kissed her thorny crucifix, St. Theresa wept with bliss, the smell of roses filled the room when my love was in bloom.

It was only for a moment then we're gone, like horses over hills and setting suns, my love comes back to me dressed up in songs

My love marched to me in a gown of white, her face of snow shone through the veil
Oh her unbridled appetite, two fires in the night, we were never satisfied, here comes the burning breath

It was only for a moment then we're gone, like horses over hills and setting suns,
My loves comes back to me dressed up in songs
My love comes back to me dressed up in songs
My loves comes back to me dressed up in songs.
