She lives just over the bridge
And oh how i would give
Almost anything to be her everything


I can't begin to tell you
All the? these eyes have seen

But none quite like her
And she's only seventeen


For you i sing this simple melody
Lada-da-da
It was a murder in the first degree

Her motives were unknown
I'd rather die than be alone
With this much, i know it's true

The crimson trail leads back to you.

But now that i'm dead

Visions of you
Run through my head
Like home-made movies we made

When we were younger
And now that i'm dead
I wont waste your time

I'll hunt your dreams instead
And you can't run away


For you i sing this simple melody
Lada-da-da
It was a murder in the first degree

Her motives were unknown
I'd rather die than be alone
With this much, i know it's true

The crimson trail leads back to you.

And when you fall in love

I hope you fall hard,
I hope you fall fast.


And when you fall in love
If it gets taken away
I hope you'll say


For you i sang this simple melody
Lada-da-da

It was a murder in the first degree
Her motives were unknown
I'd rather die than be alone

With this much, i know it's true
The crimson trail leads back...


For you i sing this simple melody
La da da da
It was a murder in the first degree

Her motives were unknown
I'd rather die than be alone
With this much, i know it's true

The crimson trail leads back to you.
