LED RC switch question

I am trying to remember a wiring diagram from a project I did as a kid. Basically I have one RC relay switch, I want to be able to wire two different color LEDs so that when one is turned off the other turns on. Does this make sense, can some one help jog my memory on how one might accomplish this? Maybe I just need two relay switches but if I can avoid that would be great. This is the switch,

Hi , you need an RC relay switch but a 2 way type ie a common point and a NC contact and a NO contact the problem is I don't think they make them , all the ones I've seen are just a pair of open contacts .
The only way round this is to have the RC relay switching a 12v relay with the right contacts on . ie a double pole double throw type.

Ya i just ended up going with two relays. Thought I remember an LED circuit in which one switch turned LEDS A off and LEDS B on. But two switches work, just getting a little crowded in the center hub.
