Let me be your little red herring
And baby tell me that you'll be mine
Run your hands through my long red hair and
Tell me you'll stay the night this time

Let me be your little red herring
And baby tell me that you'll be mine
I always felt like a great blue heron
Trapped in the cage of a grand design

But in my mind we're two shores that will never meet
Even though you hold me tightly under the sheets
I'm scared to be happy 'cause I only know sad
She used to say I was the devil but I don't want to be bad

I think deep down
I think I always knew
I think I've always been a scared little girl with no one to hold on to

I can be your little red herring
Flying light and free
I can be something for you
Since I can't be for me

I can be your little red herring
Guard my heart under strong wings
Let you wash away my sorrows
Watch them float gently downstream

I was your little red herring
Held your hand  and whispered softly
Read your mind and cherished you closely
Told you I was gonna set you free

I was your little red herring
As you flew back to your little ladybird
It made it all too clear
I was never the one you held dear

You never left my mind in Spain
Now I'm cryin' in the rain
Cut my skin to escape the pain
Painted pictures all in vain

Cause you
Never cared for me the way I did for you
It's all so clear now
I wish I'd noticed sooner

I was just your little red herring
While you yearned for your little ladybird
Called your name out, hopeless, and in vain
While you spent all your love on her

Wish I could just stop caring
Wish that you would leave my mind
'Cause I know you were never staring
Right at me but just behind
