Back In This Cigarette
Joe Doyle / Michael Mobley
Back In This Cigarette
It's two A.M. in my new home this motel room
An ash tray full of lucky strikes
A half spent case of warm Bud Light
Counting regrets...fighting back tears
Retracin' steps...gettin' nowhere
Chorus:
Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion
Where there's no love left
It's like tryin to put smoke back in this cigarette
Come sunrise guess I'll check out and ditch this town
Put a few more miles between us
And keep drivin' till I finally mend my broken trust
Hangin' my hopes on highway signs
If I lie here I'll lose my mind
Repeat Chorus
I may never know your reasons why
But someday I'm gonna see the good in your goodbye
Repeat Chorus
