Tim Shrout - Cigarette Dances lyrics

[Verse One] When I figure it out, will I still be here? Or will I be a wandering ghost? Will you read my eulogy? Or will you go first, take a hit for the team? Leave me sitting lonesome in the dugout wondering? Well, I don't want you to do that No, I don't think that I could cope With such a distasteful fact [Chorus] That you're no longer here Cause I want so much for the past calendar year To erase like it never even happened at all [Verse Two] When I open the door, will I still see you? Telling me to take off my shoes? "There's no dirt allowed in this room" Oh, what a wonderful tune And in a delicate hue, I'd have sworn it was you Like a catapulted moon on a see-through afternoon When the drowning sun disappears To make it an apparent fact [Chorus] That you're no longer here Cause I want so much for the past calendar year To erase like it never even happened at all [Bridge] When the cigarette dances and billiard matches Are all a part of what you've become Well, who's to say that you lost what you once had When you were young? Like when a spot opened up I said, “I'm not too sharp at dancing I'm better at romancing, love" But I know you're the one I should be dreaming of [Chorus] And yet, I know that you're no longer here Cause I've tried so hard for the past calendar year To erase like it never Yes, we erase like it never Yes, we erase like it never even happened at all
