Cold Feet - Tracy Chapman (特蕾西·查普曼)[00:00:00]

Written by：Tracy Chapman[00:00:01]

There was a little boy[00:00:23]

Once upon a time[00:00:25]

Who in spite of his young age[00:00:28]

And small size knew his mind[00:00:31]

For every copper penny[00:00:33]

And clover he would find[00:00:36]

Make a wish for better days[00:00:38]

The end of hard times[00:00:41]

For no more[00:00:43]

Cold feet[00:00:44]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:00:46]

His clothes were always clean[00:00:54]

His face was always scrubbed[00:00:56]

There was food on the table[00:00:58]

Enough to fill him up[00:01:01]

His house was full of life[00:01:03]

His house was full of love[00:01:06]

But when winter days arrived[00:01:08]

There was never money enough to shod his[00:01:11]

Cold feet[00:01:14]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:01:16]

He grew up to be a worker[00:01:23]

Determined to succeed[00:01:26]

He made a life for himself[00:01:28]

Free from worldly wants or needs[00:01:31]

But with nobody to share the life he'd made[00:01:33]

No body to keep him warm[00:01:36]

At night when he'd go to sleep[00:01:38]

He'd sleep alone with his[00:01:42]

Cold feet[00:01:44]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:01:46]

One night he walked the street[00:01:53]

Looking to the heaven's above[00:01:55]

Searching for a shooting star[00:01:58]

A benevolent God[00:02:01]

When a woman passing by brushed his arm[00:02:03]

He turned and found love[00:02:06]

He then wished for the courage to ask this stranger[00:02:08]

Who she was to not have[00:02:11]

Cold feet[00:02:14]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:02:15]

One year later he stood beside her[00:02:22]

I'll give you everything you want[00:02:25]

She said I'll take some love[00:02:27]

From my heart to keep your body warm[00:02:29]

You won't have[00:02:31]

Cold feet[00:02:33]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:02:35]

That she'd like the party life[00:02:42]

And want the finer things[00:02:44]

So he promised more than he could buy[00:02:46]

He promised her the sun[00:02:49]

And moon to not have[00:02:50]

Cold feet[00:02:52]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:02:54]

He worked day and night[00:03:01]

His fingers to the bone[00:03:04]

His worried mind[00:03:07]

Guilty conscience drive him on[00:03:08]

He can't give her what she needs[00:03:11]

He wants to give her what he thinks she wants[00:03:13]

Her sad face[00:03:16]

His empty pockets drive him on[00:03:18]

And his[00:03:25]

Cold feet[00:03:26]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:03:28]

He'd struggled all his life[00:03:35]

To be an honest man[00:03:37]

Proud that the dirt on his palms[00:03:39]

Was the soil of the land[00:03:41]

Some guys he knew from high school days[00:03:44]

Said they had a plan to get rich well quick[00:03:46]

And they could count him in if he don't have[00:03:51]

Cold feet[00:03:54]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:03:56]

He thought about their offer[00:04:03]

Accepted it without qualms[00:04:05]

Dreamt about the life he'd buy[00:04:08]

The comfort that would come without[00:04:10]

Cold feet[00:04:13]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:04:15]

He decided to drive the car[00:04:22]

He decided to carry the gun[00:04:24]

To take the biggest risk of all[00:04:26]

To prove his loyalty to his friends[00:04:28]

He decided to tell his wife[00:04:31]

Things would soon turn around[00:04:33]

He said the little boy is dead[00:04:35]

A man stands with you now without[00:04:38]

Cold feet[00:04:42]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:04:43]

Without[00:04:50]

Cold feet[00:04:51]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:04:52]

He thought he'd set his clock right[00:05:00]

He thought he'd read his watch[00:05:02]

He left in such a hurry[00:05:04]

He didn't think to wish for luck[00:05:06]

Makes no difference if you're early[00:05:09]

No difference if you're late[00:05:11]

When you're out of time[00:05:14]

The flowers have been laid[00:05:16]

You're six feet underground with[00:05:19]

Cold feet[00:05:22]

Cold cold cold cold feet[00:05:24]
