Lyrics
While a dream is dying, there's a baby crying somewhere in the room above. Oh, the night is lonely when you sit with only the ghost of someone you love. Looking out a window smoking my sad cigarette
Seems like someone's knocking, so I stop my rocking, but it's just the window blind. Oh, the night is haunted when you're not wanted. Your heart goes out of it's mind. Looking out a window smoking my sad cigarette.
The blue smoke rings, like lost lovers, go on a journey of no return. As they vanish, a fool discovers the brighter the flame, the deeper the burn.
What a way to wind up, with your memories lined up going out the downstairs door. All your insides hurtin' 'cause you know for certain he don't love you no more. Looking out a window smoking my sad cigarette.
