War Paint Lyrics - Singles - Lorrie Morgan

You come in while I'm sitting at the mirror 

You wanna say you know that I look nice 

I sit in desperate silence and I listen 

And with a cutting eye, you know you'd better look twice 

'Cos I'm putting on my war paint 

I'm on the path again 

And before you say it looks great 

You'd better look again 

Red is for the anger that you put me through 

And for all those nights I felt alone, will see a shade of blue 

I'll add a dash of yellow for the power that you've been 

And the black will be your nights ahead 

And my shadow in your bed 

I'm putting on my war paint 

There's nothing you can say to make it better 

And there's no apology to change my mind 

I guess I could have sent a dear John letter 

But it's written on my face, it's war paint time 

'Cos I'm putting on my war paint 

I'm on the path again 

And before you say it looks great 

You'd better look again 

Red is for the anger that you put me through 

And for all those nights I felt alone, will see a shade of blue 

I'll add a dash of yellow for the power that you've been 

And the black will be your nights ahead 

And my shadow in your bed 

I'm putting on my war paint 

I'm on the path again 

I'm putting on my war paint 

I'm on the path again 

I'm putting on my war paint 

Red is for the anger that you put me through 

I'm putting on my war paint 

And for all those nights I felt alone, will see a shade of blue 

I'm putting on my war paint 

Red is for the anger that you put me through 

I'm putting on my war paint 

And for all those nights I felt alone, will see a shade of blue 

I'm putting on my war paint 

Red is for the anger that you put me through
