Beneath this neon haze here in this honky tonk I tell everyone who'll listen I don't miss her being gone I've got a big smile painted on my face that's all I see Guess there ain't no limit to what some people will believe I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke I don't want to face the truth that I'm still in love with her So I tell 'em she's just history as far as I'm concerned Got over her the minute that she walked out the door I just look 'em in the eye and lie that's what honky-tonks are for I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke I can fool 'em one I can fool 'em all I play the part so well I'd give all I ever owned if I could only fool myself I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke
