Red Shoes Lyrics

Now you never call me
But I remember when you called me "honey"
I got a head so thick, pride on my tongue
Are you big enough to love me?
I felt so hopeless staring down the barrel of that life
You wouldn't recognize me
But I'm still that same girl running
I've got a hotel pen, story in my head
And a little bit of money
This city's so crowded
I find myself alone most of the time
But I came here for a reason
No, the girls in our town
They don't understand
That I love you and I'm leaving
If you let me go, maybe there's a chance
I wouldn't call it easy, but everyday I cast these doubts out
I got a new silk dress, story in the paper,
Will I ever make you proud?
But I sleep so soundly
Feel the sun creep across my bed
Cause I came here for a reason
No, the girls in our town
They don't understand
That I love you and I'm leaving
If you let me go, maybe there's a chance
My mother was a dancer
Took off her red shoes
Please don't make me
Please don't make me choose
Cause I came here for a reason
No, the girls in our town
They don't understand
That I love you and I'm leaving
If you let me go, maybe there's a chance
