Lady In Red


Red signifies danger, love, high energy, anger, passion and desire. We all know how it is the colour of the heart of love, of Valentines day, of romantic red roses and the drama of the recklessness of the bullfight.

Wearing red is a bold statement. It is such a powerful color. When I do wear red, it’s an indication I’m feeling empowered and fiery. Red is the Chinese colour for happiness, rich, lucky and longlife. It’s traditional to wear red clothes especially during the New Year Lunar Festival.

I associate Red with the slow romantic dance Lady In Red.


Lady In Red
(Sung by Chris DeBurgh)

I’ve never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I’ve never seen you shine so bright
I’ve never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They’re looking for a little romance, given half a chance
I have never seen that dress you’re wearing
Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes I have been blind

The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me
It’s where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I’ll never for get, the way you look tonight

I’ve never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
I’ve never seen you shine so bright you were amazing
I’ve never seen so many people want to be there by your side
And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away
I have never had such a feeling
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight

The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me
It’s where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I’ll never for get, the way you look tonight
The way you look tonight

I never will forget, the way you look tonight
The lady in red
The lady in red
The lady in red
My lady in red
I love you…
