Polaroids (Live Version) - Shawn Colvin (肖恩·科尔)[00:00:00]

Please no more therapy[00:00:11]

Mother take care of me[00:00:14]

Piece me together with a[00:00:16]

Needle and thread[00:00:19]

Wrap me in eiderdown[00:00:22]

Lace from your wedding gown[00:00:25]

Fold me and lay me down[00:00:27]

On your bed[00:00:30]

Or liken me to a shoe[00:00:32]

Blackened and spit-shined through[00:00:35]

Kicking back home to you[00:00:38]

Smiling back home[00:00:40]

Singing back home to you[00:00:43]

Laughing back home to you[00:00:46]

Dragging back home to you[00:00:48]

And I was so wary then[00:00:54]

The ugly American[00:00:56]

Thinner than oxygen[00:00:59]

Tough as a whore[00:01:02]

I said you can lie to me[00:01:04]

I own what's inside of me[00:01:07]

And nothing surprises me anymore[00:01:10]

But forests in Germany[00:01:15]

Kids in the Tuileries[00:01:18]

Broken-down fortresses[00:01:20]

In old Italy[00:01:23]

And claiming his victory[00:01:26]

Shrouded in mystery[00:01:28]

He went running away with me[00:01:31]

Back in our home New York[00:01:37]

Walking these streets forlorn[00:01:39]

We all in our uniforms[00:01:41]

Black and black[00:01:44]

Doing that slouch and jive[00:01:47]

The artist must survive[00:01:50]

We've got all we need we cried[00:01:52]

And don't look back[00:01:55]

And thinking we had it made[00:01:58]

Poised for the hit parade[00:02:00]

Knee deep in accolades[00:02:03]

The conceptual pair[00:02:05]

But ever the malcontent[00:02:08]

He left without incident[00:02:11]

Vanished into thin air[00:02:14]

Now I am always amazed[00:02:30]

Words can fill up a page[00:02:32]

Pages fill up the days[00:02:35]

Between him and me[00:02:38]

But the vows that we never keep[00:02:41]

From bedrooms to business-speak[00:02:43]

Make me remember how cheap[00:02:46]

Words can be[00:02:49]

And the letters I wrote you of[00:02:51]

Were those of the desperate stuff[00:02:54]

Like begging for love in a suicide threat[00:02:56]

But I am too young to die[00:03:02]

Too old for a lullaby[00:03:05]

Too tired for life on the ledge[00:03:07]

But I had a dream last night[00:03:13]

Of lovers who walked the plank[00:03:15]

Out on the edge of time[00:03:18]

Amidst ridicule[00:03:21]

They laughed as they rocked and reeled[00:03:23]

Over the mining fields[00:03:26]

Coming to rest on this ship of fools[00:03:29]

But he just took Polaroids[00:03:34]

Of her smile in the light[00:03:37]

Of the dawn of the menacing sky[00:03:40]

And before they went overboard[00:03:45]

She turned and held up a card[00:03:47]

And it said Valentine[00:03:50]
