| [00:29.630] | I'd heard rumors and I'd heard talk |
| [00:36.370] | About the trail you'd left of broken hearts |
| [00:43.170] | About the sea of tears too wide to cross |
| [00:50.50] | But a little bad press has never scared me off |
| [00:56.160] | So I burned a path to figure out |
| [01:00.590] | How to get me some of what you got |
| [01:03.610] | |
| [01:10.460] | I've got a red hot heart |
| [01:14.280] | If the talk is true your's is the same |
| [01:17.880] | And we should be together |
| [01:21.200] | And let our passions fan love's flame |
| [01:23.610] | |
| [01:30.980] | When I looked for you I almost passed you by |
| [01:37.840] | You were so cool and calm I thought my friends had lied |
| [01:42.979] | But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside |
| [01:51.140] | It was there and then that I knew I had to get some of what you got |
| [01:58.80] | |
| [02:05.140] | I've got a red hot heart |
| [02:08.840] | If the talk is true your's is the same |
| [02:12.390] | And we should be together |
| [02:15.820] | And let our passions fan love's flame |
| [02:18.800] | |
| [02:25.30] | I thought I'd won your heart when I held you hand in mine |
| [02:31.820] | I thought it was true love the way we complemented each other |
| [02:38.860] | But my right is your wrong |
| [02:40.460] | And when you're right then I'm left with nothing |
| [02:45.390] | Your light and your heat have all been spent |
| [02:49.130] | Leaving only smoke and ashes |
| [02:57.100] | Only smoke and ashes baby |
| [03:00.680] | |
| [03:06.110] | I've got a red hot heart |
| [03:09.990] | Any your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins |
| [03:12.880] | I say there's fire down below |
| [03:16.600] | You say it's only smoke and ashes baby |
| [03:19.860] | |
| [03:27.210] | I'm crying all the time |
| [03:30.820] | Salty stinging tears |
| [03:34.30] | And mourning for the past carbon-dated years |
| [03:40.690] | But knowing now for certain that you were always right |
| [03:47.40] | Because if a breeze could blow you out of my life |
| [03:52.400] | It's only smoke and ashes baby |
| [04:01.290] | Only smoke and ashes baby |
| [04:03.420] | |
| [04:10.320] | I've got a red hot heart |
| [04:14.220] | And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins |
| [04:17.100] | I say there's fire down below |
| [04:20.730] | You say it's only smoke and ashes baby |
| [04:24.340] | |
| [04:30.810] | I was blinded by devotion |
| [04:34.70] | My unwavering love for you |
| [04:37.580] | So blinded that I thought all your lies were true |
| [04:44.920] | But now I know for certain since you've gone away |
| [04:50.900] | It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze |
| [04:56.310] | Only smoke and ashes baby |
| [04:58.820] | |
| [05:27.410] | I've got a red hot heart |
| [05:31.270] | And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins |

| [05:44.610] | You say it's only smoke and ashes baby |
