Red Flags

(album: Plain White T's - 2023)

Couple months in, it was great, it was working
Talking all the time, everyday, always flirting
Said you were always thinking of me, of me
You told me that you love me, love me

Oh, thought we were perfect
Oh, but then I heard that
You told people that we're only friends
All those moments, they were just pretend
Oh, why would you say that?
Oh, you know I hate that
White lies, white lies, you just love to brag
Bet you hide all of your secrets in that little yellow Gucci bag

Red flags, red flags
Way too many red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?
You know I always used to daydream under purple skies
All about your blue jeans and your green eyes
But what about the red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?

Feels like I'm colorblind, I didn't see the signs
I should've realized when you canceled on our movie night
Thought it was fine, didn't read between the lines
Said you were tired and you blamed it on an early flight

Oh, you're out of town now
Oh, that's when I found out
You told people that I'm not the one
You told people it was just for fun
Oh, why would you say that?
Oh, you know I hate that
White lies, white lies, you just love to brag
Bet you hide all of your secrets in that little yellow Gucci bag

Red flags, red flags
Way too many red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?
You know I always used to daydream under purple skies
All about your blue jeans and your green eyes
But what about the red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?

Is this where the end begins?
Feelings fade away again
Colors used to be so vivid
Now they're just so dull and everything is different
Is this where the end begins?
Feelings fade away again
Colors used to be so vivid
Now they're just so dull and everything is different

Red flags, red flags
Way too many red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?
You know I always used to daydream under purple skies
All about your blue jeans and your green eyes
But what about the red flags, red flags
I just can't figure it out
What the hell are you about?
