Lies And Cigarettes

It was a warm day
In the middle of a cold winter
She was a good girl
Gave her heart to a wandering sinner
I couldn't say if I loved her
Or if we were not there yet
We were young
And living
On lies and cigarettes

Last thing I remember
Snow began to fall
She went out to get some air
Said she didn't want to talk
I lost my mind out on that highway
Never really came back home
She said she loved the boy I used to be
Then the conversation stalled

It was a warm day
In the middle of the cold winter
She was a good girl
Gave her heart to a wandering sinner
I couldn't say if I loved her
Or if we were not there yet
We were young
And living
On lies and cigarettes

I wish I could paint her picture
But I do not know how
I heard she moved back to Omaha
And works for her father now
So I dial most of her number
And then I change my mind
Our friends say she's doing better now
So I let her live her life

It was a warm day
In the middle of a cold winter
She was a good girl
Gave her heart to a wandering sinner
I couldn't say if I loved her
Or if we were not there yet
We were young
And living
On lies and cigarettes

It was a warm day
In the middle of a cold winter
She was a good girl
Gave her heart to a wandering sinner
I couldn't say if I love her
Or if we were not there yet
We were young
And living
On lies and cigarettes
