Red Flags

My mama warned me about you She always said I was better off with somebody new I hate how right she always is but it’s true I don't have time for me and you So I've kept my distance from you Cause I've decided you don't have a clue And if you don't know what you want I can't be here Cause I’ll lose sight of what I’m after too I need to pay more attention to the warning signs I need to find what’s right for me and leave what’s not right You waved all these red flags But I was blinded by your beauty You walked in like a dark light That I didn't welcome in I should’ve listened to those red flags Now I'm haunted by your name How far do I need to go to get away from you Will a ticket to Italy bring me back from being blue I thought if I escaped my world for a couple days I would be free of you I need to pay more attention to the warning signs I need to find what’s right for me and leave what’s not right You waved all these red flags But I was blinded by your beauty You walked in like a dark light That I didn't welcome in I should’ve listened to those red flags Now I'm haunted by your name It never happens like it should My head starts to make a run for it Never works how you thought it would And when your heart is stained it seems to remain You waved all these red flags But I was blinded by your beauty You walked in like a dark light That I didn't welcome in I should’ve listened to those red flags Now I'm haunted by your name
