Her Hair Was Red

Lyrics

I walked across the bridge to the island
 And sat down in the grass by the old homestead
 I listened to the song of the cicadas
 And thought about the one whose hair was red
 This is where she gave birth to my father
 Back when she was just a newly wed
 You wouldn't know it looking at this picture
 That her eyes were blue, hair was red
 You wouldn't know she traveled far and wide
 You wouldn't know she lived here all her life
 There is so much you'll never know about her
 So much left to say that's left unsaid
 But I have got this picture in my memory
 And her eyes are blue, her hair is red
 Yes her eyes
 Were baby blue, and was hair
 Was red
