Like a ghost that dances from the tip of a lit cigarette I know what romance is, but it hasn't happened yet Watch it floating up to heaven only knows Disappearing before you get too close It's only smoke You might say a flame is burning Only smoke But my heart is more discerning Only smoke... Eyes are hypnotizing when they hold you within their embrace Words are mesmerizing even when they've got nothing to say The game is charming in an empty kind of way What's the harm in asking me to play? It's only smoke You might say a flame is burning Only smoke But my heart is more discerning I keep dreaming of a fire, but when I wake up to the cold It's only smoke
