Easy Is a Red Flag Songtext
von Brooks Nielsen

I know it wasn′t fame
That's not why I left you
Had to find change
Had to find some proof

Nothing like lies
To make you seek the truth
What did I find
But how I long for you

You were there to hold me by the shore
Far away from all this senseless war
You were there and I know you still are
Right between the boardwalk and the bar

I see you as a woman
I′m not your only lover
Your curves have changed
Like I've been gone forever


Your eyes still call
But I don't have the time no more
Don′t bury me where I fall
Return me to the shore

You were there to hold me by the shore
Far away from all this senseless war
You were there and I know you still are
Right between the boardwalk and the bar

Big cities and bright lights
Marking the night life
They don′t have the same shine they once had
Red tide in the moonlight
Trimming the high line
Almost calls me back, but easy is a red flag

Fame's not why I left you
Had to find change
Had to find some proof
Nothing like lies
To make you seek the truth
What did I find
But how I long for you


You were there to hold me by the shore
Far away from all this senseless war
You were there and I know you still are
Right between the boardwalk and the bar
