Tracy Chapman - Smoke & Ashes Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Id heard rumors and Id heard talk
  • About the trail youd 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
  • Ive got a red hot heart
  • If the talk is true yours is the same
  • And we should be together
  • And let our passions fan loves 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
  • Ive got a red hot heart
  • If the talk is true yours is the same
  • And we should be together
  • And let our passions fan loves flame
  • I thought Id 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 youre right then Im left with nothing
  • Your light and your heat have all been spent
  • Leaving only smoke and ashes
  • Only smoke and ashes baby
  • Ive got a red hot heart
  • Any your hearts as blue as the blood in your veins
  • I say theres fire down below
  • You say its only smoke and ashes baby
  • Im 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
  • Its only smoke and ashes baby
  • Only smoke and ashes baby
  • Ive got a red hot heart
  • And your hearts as blue as the blood in your veins
  • I say theres fire down below
  • You say its 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 youve gone away
  • It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze
  • Only smoke and ashes baby
  • Ive got a red hot heart
  • And your hearts as blue as the blood in your veins
  • I say theres fire down below
  • You say its only smoke and ashes baby
  • Only smoke and ashes baby, baby ...
