Smoke - The Bobs

We had a spark and we had fire

Kisses that sizzled on our lips

Beatnik poets rolled their own

Rich folks had filter tips

We had time enough to live forever

You lit me up with every beer

Devil may care like Bogey and Bacall

With a wink, a flick and a sneer

Now I’m only smoke

A faded second hand joke

Now I’m only smoke

Why am I banned from public places?

Made to hang round outside?

Tell me what it was I did to you

I never cheated and I never lied

Now I’m only smoke

A faded second hand joke

Now I’m only smoke
