Smoke

The smoke from a cigarette
 Is all that I need
 To get transported back in time
 To the moment you were mine
 The fumes slowly drift away
 Through the room in a cloud of grey
 You consume me like a flame
 But I'll never be the same
 When you caress me between your fingers
 The excitement lingers -- I can't wait no more
 And when you slide me between your soft lips
 How I longed for this bittersweet kiss
 I'm glowing
 And you start to cry
 When the smoke gets in your eye
 You say it makes you feel alive
 But those tears you cannot hide
 You swallow
 What you know will kill you
 I guess that's 'a part of the thrill' no?
 I go to your head
 When you breathe me in
 I make you numb
 On your precious skin
 You light me up and you watch me burning
 Darling how I'm yearning
 For a lover's touch
 When you inhale I can feel you tremble
 Even though it's such a gamble
 Take another drag
 The smoke from a cigarette
 Is all that I need
 To get transported back in time
 To the moment you were mine...
