White Is Red Lyrics & Chords By Death From Above 1979

Frankie was a heartbreaker
I didn't know it at the start
She was only sixteen
When she went and broke my heart
And she pulled up in her dad's car
Wearing white
She said she knew a place
Where we could hide
She didn't have a license
But she told me I could drive
So I drove all night
"Why don't you leave me?"
She asked that night
I said "I'll stay I know the kid is mine
I'll never leave you
It isn't right
Let's stay together
Until the end of time"
Oh, now the white is red
Can't get it
Outta my head
Oh, now the white is red

"I heard that there's a place
Where we can go
Across the state, there's no one
That we know
Or maybe rent a place
Where we can stay
Where what we have would go
A longer way"
Then Frankie turned to me
She looked me in the eye
She said that I looked tired
She told me she could drive
I pulled up to the station
Walked through the neon lights
Then she put her foot
Down, down, down, down
Why did you leave me
Alone that night?
You took off racing
The kid is mine
You left me standing
Out on the yellow line
The taillight's fading
Into the night
We crossed the line
We crossed the line
We crossed the line
We crossed the line
Oh, now the white is red
Can't get it
Outta my head
Oh, now the white is red

I don't know
Why she left
Took off racin'
I ran down
Yellow line
Red lights fadin'
She went left
Double line
Outta love
Outta time
I cover my eyes
I know she crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
She crossed the line
Oh, now the white is red
Can't get it
Outta my head
Oh, now the white is red
