Good evening
Are you new at the trade
At least I haven't met you before
Join the crowd that tries to get it made
All looking for a big deal to score
The nights are lonely for a man on the road
You see the family once a week
And years go by,
increasing the load
It's hard life so to speak
Mmm, but red skies of love is what I see
A heavenly sound is what I hear
Red skies of love for you and me (yeah yeah)
Red skies of love (2x)
Well you know I'm a travelling man
There's not one town I don't know
I got the job by accident
It's the money that makes me go
Hotelroom after hotelroom
I must have seen 'm all
Never a first class treatment
For the expenses that I've got
Red skies of love (6x)
How're you doing
Heard you're new at the trade
At least I haven't met you before
Join the crowd that tries to get it made
All looking for a big deal to score
The nights are lonely for a man on the road
You see the family once a week
And years go by,
increasing the load
It's hard life so to speak
Red skies of love (6x)
Hoes van de single 'Red Skies'.
