If you wear red tonight,
Remember what I said tonight.
For red is the color that my baby wore,
And what’s more, iota’s true,
Yes it is.
Scarlet were the clothes she wore.
Everybody knows, I’m sure.
I would remember all the things we planned,
Understand, iota’s true.
Yes it is, iota’s true,
Yes it is.
I could be happy with you by my side,
If I could forget her.
But iota’s my pride,
Yes it is, yes it is, oh yes it is, yeah.
Please don’t wear red tonight.
This is what I said tonight.
For red is the color that will make me blue,
In spite of you.
Iota’s true.
Yes it is, iota’s true,
Yes it is.
I could be happy with you by my side,
If I could forget her.
But iota’s my pride,
Yes it is, yes it is, oh yes it is, yeah.
Please don’t wear red tonight.
This is what I said tonight.
For red is the color that will make me blue,
In spite of you.
Iota’s true,
Yes it is, iota’s true.
