Текст песни Tracy Chapman - Smoke And Ashes
Tracy Chapman - Smoke And Ashes слова песни
I`d heard rumors and I`d heard talk
About the trail you`d left of broken hearts
About the sea of tears too wide to cross
But a little bad press has never scared me off
So I burned a path to figure out
How to get me some of what you got
I`ve got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your`s is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love`s flame
When I looked for you I almost passed you by
You were so cool and calm I thought my friends had lied
But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside
It was there and then that I knew I had to get some of what you got
I`ve got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your`s is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love`s flame
I thought I`d won your heart when I held you hand in mine
I thought it was true love the way we complemented each other
But my right is your wrong
And when you`re right then I`m left with nothing
Your light and your heat have all been spent
Leaving only smoke and ashes
Only smoke and ashes baby
I`ve got a red hot heart
Any your heart`s as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there`s fire down below
You say it`s only smoke and ashes baby
I`m crying all the time
Salty stinging tears
And mourning for the past carbon-dated years
But knowing now for certain that you were always right
Because if a breeze could blow you out of my life
It`s only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby
I`ve got a red hot heart
And your heart`s as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there`s fire down below
You say it`s only smoke and ashes baby
I was blinded by devotion
My unwavering love for you
So blinded that I thought all your lies were true
But now I know for certain since you`ve gone away
It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze
Only smoke and ashes baby
I`ve got a red hot heart
And your heart`s as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there`s fire down below
You say it`s only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby, baby ...
