First Line: Did you think I'd follow you
Last Line: If you should turn -- and follow me.
Subject(s): Red (color)
Did you think I'd follow you
As your small gray shadows do?
Did you not know that I must run
Alive and laughing, in the sun?
That sometimes I must even wear
A scarlet feather in my hair?
A feather that were plain to see
If you should turn -- and follow me.
