[Verse 1] I turned the room inside out Under the bed, behind the chair Found a receipt and a shoelace But your twin is never there You were there in the laundry spin You were there by the back door mat Now I'm talking to the dryer Like it knows where you at [Pre-Chorus] Come on back Little red ghost You leave me With one bare toe [Chorus] One red sock Where'd you go? (where'd you go?) One red sock I need you home (need you home) One red sock You stole my load One red sock Come back alone (come back alone) [Verse 2] I checked the hamper twice today I shook out every t-shirt fold Even found a marble, a button And a dime from who-knows-when-old My feet don't like this uneven fate One warm, one mad, one left behind I swear the whole world feels off-balance When your soft red stripe's hard to find [Pre-Chorus] Come on back Little red ghost You leave me With one bare toe [Chorus] One red sock Where'd you go? (where'd you go?) One red sock I need you home (need you home) One red sock You stole my load One red sock Come back alone (come back alone) [Bridge] Maybe you slipped in a pant leg Maybe you clung to a sleeve Maybe you found a secret floorboard And decided not to leave If you hear me, send a sign From the corner of the machine I'll forgive the whole great vanish Just bring your red self back to me [Final Chorus] One red sock Where'd you go? (where'd you go?) One red sock I need you home (need you home) One red sock You stole my load One red sock Come back alone (come back alone)
