[Verse 1]
I saw her in the morning rain,
With tired eyes and coffee stains,
She stood between the crowd and me,
Like some kind soul heaven sent to see.
They called me monster in the street,
But she knelt down beside my feet,
With little stars upon band-aids,
And kindness that refused to fade.
[Chorus]
Oh, my lady in red,
You danced through my aching head,
With your soft hands and fearless eyes,
You made a lonely clown feel alive.
And every night beneath circus lights,
I pray the gods keep you by my side,
Oh, my lady in red…
Don’t disappear like the rest did.
[Verse 2]
You laugh at things no one else can,
Talk mythology and old stage plans,
You hold my silence carefully,
Like it’s something worth listening to me.
And when the whole town turns away,
You still ask me if I’m okay,
No fear behind your gentle grin,
Like maybe I could still fit in.
[Chorus]
Oh, my lady in red,
You danced through my aching head,
With your soft hands and fearless eyes,
You made a lonely clown feel alive.
And every night beneath circus lights,
I pray the gods keep you by my side,
Oh, my lady in red…
Don’t disappear like the rest did.
[Bridge]
I’ve worn this painted face so long,
Forgot what heartbeats sounded like in songs,
But your voice cuts through the noise somehow,
And I don’t feel so broken now.
[Final Chorus]
Oh, my lady in red,
You turned my darkness delicate,
Now every performance feels brand new,
Because somewhere in the crowd… there’s you.
And if tomorrow this whole world burns,
I’d still wait for your return,
Oh, my lady in red…
The only home I’ve ever had.
