Old cherry red

Here are the lines from a song written by me in 2009. I don't remember what was going through my head at the time, but I wanted to put it somewhere before I lost it again. Here goes :)

I stare at photos on the wall
Memories I know, can't carry me far
the red in cherry was too red to be
There's just so much the eye can see

I drink juice and then the tea
Something feels inadequate to me
Times I love more than times I dread
This is the story of the old cherry red

Raindrops and roses, you can't really choose it
Raindrops and roses, that's why I chose it

Fireflies fly through the dark of the night
Tears on your pillow to show you whats right
Times been amazing, Time's been real swell
Here's what I learnt from old cherry red

Raindrops and roses, you can't really choose it
Raindrops and roses, that's why I chose it

Hush, there's no time to waste away
Always, you gotta do the right thing anyway
ohhhhhhhhh...
No, wait, It was never my fault
I think its time to open up that vault
Ohhhhhhh....

Raindrops and roses, you can't really choose it
Raindrops and roses, that's why I chose it
